SXSW Watch: The early buzz
Like every other arts lover in Austin, you’re probably wondering how to plan your schedule during South by Southwest, which kicks off March 13 with the Film Conference and Festival.
The American-Statesman Life & Arts staff will be giving tips on upcoming events to help in your planning.
First up: Marshall Allman, 24, the star of the new movie, ‘The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle.’
The Austin native moved to Southern California shortly after graduating from Austin High School, and some of his first work was as a guest on various TV shows, including ‘Without a Trace,’ ‘Boston Public’ and ‘Malcolm in the Middle.’ His most high-profile TV role so far has been as LJ Burrows on ‘Prison Break.’
In director David Russo’s new film, ‘The Immaculate Conception of Little Dizzle,’ Allman plays Dory, a guy who loses his high-tech job and ends up working as a night janitor. Before long, he forms a bond with his fellow workers and discovers that he and they are the subjects of a bizarre experiment that is changing their minds and bodies.
Described as a hallucinatory tale that includes animated sequences, ‘Little Dizzle’ co-stars Tygh Runyan of ‘Normal,’ Tania Raymonde of ‘Lost’ and Vince Vieluf. Screenings: March 15, 9:15 p.m., Alamo Ritz; March 19, 4 p.m., Alamo Ritz; March 21, 11 a.m., Alamo South.
