Just because SXSW 2008 is five months away, doesn’t mean you can’t see many of previous years’ selections, in a theater near you. Here’s a look at a film playing in select theaters now.

Kurt Cobain About A Son (SXSW 2007) in select theaters now.
Summary: “An intimate and moving meditation on the late musician and artist Kurt Cobain, based on more than 25 hours of previously unheard audiotaped interviews conducted with Cobain by noted music journalist Michael Azerrad for his book Come As You Are: The Story of Nirvana. In the film, Kurt Cobain recounts his own life - from his childhood and adolescence to his days of musical discovery and later dealings with explosive fame - and offers often piercing insights into his life, music, and times. The conversations heard in the film have never before been made public and they reveal a highly personal portrait of an artist much discussed but not particularly well understood.” For more information, click here.

Local quintet Paris ‘49 pays homage to American jazz that emerged during the ‘30s and ‘40s, truly a romantic sound that calls to mind the style of Django Reinhardt. Their happy hour show on Monday nights at the Continental Club is always improvised, so here’s your chance to check them out tonight.
