AUSTIN – The title of this post isn’t just me being cute. It’s the name of the opening night party April and I attended on Friday night. Austin is nothing if not eccentric, and this event fit the bill. Essentially, it consisted of burlesque performers handing out their homemade cupcakes. What’s not to like? My favorite was a banana one that came with a side of bacon for some unexplained reason.

But I’m not down here to blog about cupcakes; I’m here to write about all the cool films that are showing this week. The next post will be about one I saw last night, but I had to get this out of my system first.
