A Guide to SXSW.
SXSW has passed but it was my first year and I had the time of my life. I know festivals can be pretty intimidating though, especially if it's your first time going to a large one like SXSW. In order to help you out, I wrote a mini guide to the festival if you happen to go next year. Keep in mind though, this is for the movie weekend as I didn't go to the music weekend.
SXSW Interview: Jamie Babbit and Karey Dornetto Talk Fresno
Fresno is writer Karey Dornetto and director Jamie Babbit's first film collaboration and hopefully not the last. It is a crime comedy that tells the dysfunctional story of two sisters Shannon (played by Judy Greer) a registered sex offender fresh out of rehab and her bright and shiny yet unintentionally enabling sister Martha (played by Natasha Lyonne). When an accidental death occurs the sisters are stuck trying to figure out how to get rid of it or suffer the consequences. Cinelinx sat down with both Babbit and Dornetto to discuss the film.
Interview with Unexpected director/writer Kris Swanberg
Unexpected is writer/director Kris Swanberg's third film. It tells the tale of a Chicago high school teacher, Samantha (played by Cobie Smulders) who becomes pregnant around the same time as one of her students and a relationship forms. Cinelinx sat down with the Swanberg at SXSW to discuss the film and the new way that Swanberg decided to create it.
