AFF Film Series Resumes With Kite Runner & Walk Hard

After a much deserved break, the folks at the Austin Film Festival will resume their fantastic year-round screening series next week, beginning on Wednesday with a sneak peek at Marc Forster's adaptation of The Kite Runner, which will see a limited release on December 14th after much controversy about the film's effect on its young stars.

On Friday evening, AFF will also present an advance screening of the new Judd Apatow / Jake Kasdan-penned mockumentary Walk Hard, with Kasdan and star John C. Reilly in attendance! And as if that weren't cool enough, there will also be a post-screening party featuring a live performance by Dewey Cox & The Hard Walkers! Exclamation point! We're big John C. Reilly fans, so this news is super exciting.

The best way to attend these screenings is to become an Austin Film Festival member. The basic membership gets you free access to events like these, as well as discounts on other screenings and workshops.
