Just enough off the beaten path to enjoy what Austin has to offer besides the bats and Duck Tours, along with some of what's hot for South by Southwest. "Sleep is the enemy"

A Couple of SXSW Films I'd Like to see

Palindromes
Todd Solondz, who directed this, also did Welcome to the Dollhouse and Happiness. He has a rare talent for the depressingly authentic, a little too close to the nerve at times.

Unleashed
This cross-genre film has a lot of power within it, and shows a lot of promise to be this year's "Fight Club". Jet Li stars, with Bob Hoskins and Morgan Freeman in supporting roles. The screenplay was written by Luc Besson (Fifth Element, La Femme Nikita) and Robert Mark Kamen (Fifth Element). Action choreography by one of the best in the industry, Woo-ping Yuen (Kill Bill and Matrix series).
