One of the best films you’re likely to see this year opens this weekend in Dallas. BROTHERHOOD, from director Will Canon was a huge hit last year at both South by Southwest and the Dallas International Film Festival. Taking a gritty and sometime darkly amusing look at college fraternity life, the movie is undeniably tense and memorable, and features strong performances. On Saturday night, at 7:15pm, we’ll be hosting a special Q&A at the Angelika Dallas theater off of Mockingbird Road and 75. The film’s director Will Canon will be in attendance, along with cast members Trevor Morgan, Lou Taylor Pucci, Jon Foster, and Arlen Escarpeta. This is one of the movies you’re likely to be hearing a LOT about this year, so don’t miss this rare opportunity to hear about it straight from those involved.

Winner of the 2010 Audience Award at the SXSW Film Festival, BROTHERHOOD is a superb classic film noir from director and Dallas native, Will Canon. The film is about a college freshman who finds himself blindfolded in the back of a van dealing with the fact that he has to rob a convenience store as the final step of his initiation into the Sigma Zeta Chi fraternity. Filmed on location in Arlington, Texas, this well crafted indie shows how a college fraternity initiation can go horribly wrong. The superb young cast includes Jon Foster, Lou Taylor Pucci and Trevor Morgan.
