Rosario Dawson: Supernova

By Chris Garcia | Monday, March 10, 2008, 01:09 PM

Actress Rosario Dawson — best known for her breakout in “Kids” and Quentin Tarantino’s wicked Austin-made “Death Proof” — talks a mile a minute and has a face like a freshly bloomed pink rose. (Pink Rosario?)

Ask her a question, then sit back and enjoy the machine-gun fire for the next, oh, 10 to 20 minutes as she answers, loquaciously, logorrheically. She’s awesome.

She’s in Austin to screen her urban drama “Explicit Ills,” which stars pint-sized child actor Francisco Burgos, who radiates the screen.

Dawson and co-star Burgos on Saturday in Austin

The worthwhile film plays at 9:30 p.m. Friday at the Alamo Ritz. Details HERE.
