The South by Southwest Film Festival is waiting till the new year – Jan. 2, to be exact – to announce its 2008 opening-night film and other premieres/special guests/the like, but a little birdie slipped us the details on three titles showing: David Schwimmer's feature directorial debut, Run, Fatboy, Run, starring Hot Fuzz's Simon Pegg (who co-wrote the script with Stella's Michael Ian Black); Flawless, a heist picture with Demi Moore and Michael Caine; and Wild Blue Yonder, Celia Maysles' controversial doc about her father and uncle, documentary giants the Maysles brothers. These three are in addition to the news broke in last week's issue by the cubicle around the corner, "Off the Record," that Lou Reed's Berlin, a concert doc staged and directed by Julian Schnabel, will screen in conjunction with Lou Reed's SXSW Music keynote address.
