SXSW so far...
It's raining in sheets in Austin right now, and there's something about dashing through the downpour, from screening to screening to party to screening, that's just exhilarating. I've never had this much fun at SXSW before; I've sort of thrown away my schedule and am pretty much seeing whatever's buzzing during those inevitable congregations of friends and friendly strangers outside the theater after each film. That, and split second decisions, like ducking into the Zellner Vs. Duplass showdown; I'd already seen all of the fraternal duos' shorts, but sometimes context is everything. It was pretty amazing.
And then, of course, there was the premiere of Hannah Takes The Stairs at the Paramount. It was just the best thing ever (and poorly commemorated here, for the time being, by this snapshot from my cell phone).
More to come, of course...
