OK, headed out to Austin in the morning on American Airlines 1182.

Last time I was there, about ten years ago, I was shooting a doc for Japanese TV about the bats that live under the Congress Ave. bridge. Little did I know I'd be back with a film called "Fuck." I hope the bats are still there...I'm guessing they are.

We're playing Friday night at the Paramount right before the official opening night film. With any luck at all, (with apologies to Mr. Altman) the marquee might read "Fuck The Prairie Home Companion." There's also some sweet irony in the fact that the first person who agreed to be interviewed for our film was the aforementioned Mr. Altman, though the interview never did quite come together. The fun fact is that the first fuck uttered in a major studio film was in "MASH." Doesn't seem like all that long ago...

Look, I'm thrilled to be in Austin at SxSW. Audiences across the country seem to really dig our film and I can't wait to play in Texas, one of my favorite places. I'd also like to shout out to my other filmmakers here. I'm sure that some of you are going to prove to be a better blogger than I and I look forward to your dispatches from the front. Please if you see me anywhere, say hey and I'll do the same. I'm looking forward to seeing your films.

And hey, let's all have a couple of beers and go watch the bats while we're there...
