Dear Austinites,

Beg, borrow, or buy a copy of today's Austin-American Statesman (or click here). Flip open to the Life & Arts section (D-1). See that big, full-color photo taking up half the top? That's my brother! (Well, the one on the right).

He's up for the "Someone to Watch" award in this year's Independent Spirit Awards, for his movie, Dear Pillow, which has been garnering acclaim at film festivals both nationally and abroad, and which was shot here in Austin. The Independent Spirit Awards will air the day before the Oscars, this Saturday, on Bravo. But the Austin Film Society is also hosting a live broadcast this Saturday afternoon at:

The Fox & the Hound
4th & Guadalupe
4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.


It's free and open to the public, so c'mon by and help me root for a fellow Austinite!

"Dear Pillow" is, indeed, quite a good film.

I agree! And I'm not just saying that 'cuz I'm the director's big sis. I'm hoping it may screen here in Austin again some time; perhaps if he wins, that'll generate renewed interest in the film. Keep your fingers crossed!
