BEFORE MIDNIGHT Headliners, 2013
We've been following Jesse and Celine's journey for the last 18 years since Before Sunrise hit the screens in 1995. Now director Richard Linklater, along with actors/co-screenwriters Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy, invite us back into their world as we find Jesse and Celine dealing with the joys and trials of long-term love and raising a family. Life's gotten real for these once strangers on a train and our time with them is rewarded in this candid look at what comes after. This masterpiece is a stunning achievement from Linklater and a rare treat in a world that often seems limited to only the beginnings.

This year we were lucky to present "50 Years of the Beatles" in collaboration with the Grammy Museum.
Hop in your time machine and have a gander at artists Robyn Hitchcock, Rodney Crowell and Ron Sexsmith as they head back to February 1964 along with Bill Flanagan and moderator Bob Santelli to discuss the Fab Four's storming of both America and Britain's shores.
SXSW 2013 Showcasing Artist Emily Bell's debut album is available at Austin's Waterloo Records today (5/23) and it will be released everywhere on Tuesday, May 28. The Houston native recorded the album in a rural Texas lake cabin with Emily and producer John Evans co-writing all the songs.
"I want to die on Mars, but not impact" became one of the most tweeted-about lines from the 2013 SXSW Interactive Festival. Nonetheless, the Elon Musk keynote conversation with Chris Anderson in Austin in March offered much much more than this clever soundbite.
