Our team traveled to Austin, Texas for the SXSW Film Festival and ate a lot of BBQ, drank some Lone Star and saw a few movies. Well, a lot of movies. So if you weren’t like most people (or filmmakers and publicists) who checked the Film Threat website 50 times a day, we thought we’d make it easy for you and create one story that includes everything we did and saw from SXSW in Austin. (This is like our final book report and was put together by Film Threat’s Alan Ng, Bobby LePire, Chris Gore, Meridith Stokes and Walter Areas who made the trek to Austin, while the remote team was on hand to help.)
Enjoy this round-up of SXSW coverage including Film Threat reviews, all 17 SXSW episodes of the Film Threat Podcast, interviews from Film Threat’s YouTube channel, and a collection of trailers from movies at the 2019 SXSW Film Festival. Okay, we’re headed out for more BBQ and a six pack of Lone Star beer (if we can find one). We also must thank our SXSW 2019 sponsor StoryBlocks, and you can still take advantage of this special offer at this link. See you at the 2020 SXSW fest for more!
