SXSW Film Festival 2004

REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Fri., March 12, 2004
The SXSW Film Festival 2004 begins today, March 12, and continues through next Saturday, March 20. Premiering around town over the next nine days will be a wide selection of narrative features, documentaries, short films, music videos, and numerous sidebars, with many of the filmmakers in attendance. In this issue of the Chronicle, there's a detailed pullout section – in addition to all the articles, interviews, and critics picks highlighted in the regular Screens section – that provides comprehensive program descriptions, schedules, admission info, and more. Check it out, and also refer to www.sxsw.com/film for further details. The Festival's selections offer something for everyone (although keep in mind that very few of these films have MPAA ratings guidelines). And stay tuned to austinchronicle.com for additional coverage. Screenings are at the Alamo Drafthouse Downtown, the Austin Convention Center, Arbor Cinema @ Great Hills, Dobie Theatre, Paramount Theatre, the Hideout, and the Millennium Youth Entertainment Complex.
