South by Southwest Film Festival 2012

REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Fri., March 16, 2012

The 2012 edition of the South by Southwest Film Festival runs through Saturday. Continuing in this issue is more coverage of more films, beginning on p. 53 of this week's Screens section. Be on the lookout for the print dailies, which come out (Thursday-Saturday, March 15-17) during the Music Conference, as well as more wrap-up coverage in next week's issue. Of course, it is all available online at austinchronicle.com/sxsw. Also, check out the schedule at www.sxsw.com/film since most of the slots originally left open for the Buzz Screenings presented by Tugg.com and the reprise screenings of the award-winning films (see "SXSW 2012 Film Awards," p. 53) have now been announced. You're certain to find something to suit your fancy.
