Varying views of Texas in film series
So many movies have been made in Texas that it’s hard to pick just a few for a film series. But the Austin Film Festival and Bullock Museum have selected an interesting array of titles for their Made in Texas Film Series, six movies made by Texans or in Texas, or both.
Look:
April 8: “Songwriter,” with writer Bud Shrake and musician Ray Benson in attendance
May 13: “Fandango,” with writer-director Kevin Reynolds there
June 10: “Blood Simple”
July 8: (tba)
Aug. 12: “Chalk,” with writer-director Mike Akel and writer-actor Chris Mass there
Sept. 9: “A Perfect World,” with writer-director John Lee Hancock
All shows at 7:30 p.m. in the Texas Spirit Theater. Free for festival and Bullock Museum members. $5 general.

Thank you so much for writing about this! “Fandango” is one of my favorite all time films and I have been wanting to see it on the big screen. To have Kevin Reynolds there will be great. P.S., I think I saw you yesterday at Mighty Cone…hope yours was better than what I had ugh! overcooked and DRY!
