All the way back in 2019, which feels like an eternity ago, I stumbled across an indie gem masterpiece called SAINT FRANCES on the very last night of SxSW. It had won several awards and had praise from anyone who had seen it, so I was pretty stoked to see it. The movie exceeded my […]

We joined Lawless as well […]

It was a glorious opening night at the 2024 edition of South By Southwest Film & TV for the World Premiere of Doug Liman’s ROAD HOUSE, a big and grand. The cast and crew were all here in attendance. Doug Liman was present, sitting about ten rows behind my aisle seat donning a cowboy hat. […]
South By Southwest 2024 – From ROAD HOUSE to Audible House & Every House After That
Getting off the plane in Austin and seeing a sea of people everywhere, even running into a filmmaker that I have known for years mere moments after I step off the plane and hit the washroom, Austin just keeps on being weird every single year.
