One of the more interesting side stops during SXSW was the IFC Crossroads House. A couple of blocks from the Austin Convention Center, and on the way to two of the main theater spots, I checked in a few times during the festival and caught some interesting interviews. With a variety of film talent popping in for a few minutes throughout each day, it was well worth fitting into the schedule.
You may have caught some of their coverage already, and tonight (April 9th, 8:30pm) is the premiere of the SXSW Wrap-Up Special. It's going to be a treat, and cover film, music, and interactive portions of the festival, including exclusive performances and interviews.
Craig Finn (The Hold Steady), who interviewed IFC’s musical guests, is featured in this new 30-minute special which includes performances by She & Him, Jakob Dylan & Three Legs, Broken Social Scene, The Antlers, The Sword, Neon Indian, Phantogram, and more.
Highlights featured from the film portion of the festival include interviews with Ed Norton (LEAVES OF GRASS), Patrick Wilson (BARRY MUNDAY) and Jonah Hill (CYRUS), in addition to the cast of MacGruber (Kristin Wiig, Ryan Phillippe, Will Forte).
