Austin doc makers Joe Bailey Jr. (l) and Steve Mims

UPDATE: As of 5pm or so, it appears that tonight’s screening Incendiary: The Willingham Case is SOLD OUT. Jordan Smith’s March 2011 Chronicle interview with the filmmakers remains compelling.

Original post:

Plan on seeing Incendiary, the powerful doc that investigates the controversial arson conviction and execution of Cameron Todd Willingham, which screens tonight courtesy of the Texas Tribune? (And if you don’t, you definitely need to see it somewhere else, and soon.)

Read ahead with Jordan Smith’s filmmaker interview in our SXSW Film issue last March. Oh, and there’s more on here.

This article appears in July 8 • 2011.
