Andrew Bujalski talks it out

As part of its new-ish Reverse Shot Talkie series, Indiewire has posted a video of journalist Eric Hynes interviewing filmmaker Andrew Bujalski as the pair rummage through the Family Jewels, a Manhattan vintage store. It's a reference to the setting of Bujalski's latest film, Beeswax, which was shot in Austin and centers on a turf war over a co-owned secondhand store (North Loop's now-shuttered Storyville). In the video, Bujalski wanders through the aisles, talking about his three feature films and how he finally taught himself how to tie a necktie – off the Internet – in anticipation of his recent wedding to local author Karen Olsson.

Beeswax opened in Manhattan on Friday. NY Times' lead critic (and new balcony warmer) A.O. Scott says this: "Beeswax, at first glance a modest, ragged slice of contemporary life, turns out to be a remarkably subtle, even elegant movie." Cinema Guild is distributing Beeswax, which had its American premiere at SXSW 09. No word yet on when it'll make its way to Austin theatres.
