IT'S TIME! Are YOU ready to scout SXSW?

FILM SCOUT: SXSW 2023

Get your scouting thumbs ready — it's time for the SXSW 2023 Film Festival lineup!

This is an exciting round because, for the first time in Legion M history, one of our own films (You Can Call Me Bill) is premiering at the festival! Now, don't let this affect your scoring — we promise we won't hold your rating against you (or your place on the leaderboard) — but it will be interesting to see how it stacks up against the other films in the lineup among our community.

There’s also an added bit of poetic symmetry here — director Alexandre O. Philippe and Exhibit A Pictures (the creative masterminds behind You Can Call Me Bill) are the same team that produced Memory: The Origins of Alien, the first film that Legion M acquired because of the Film Scout app. Full circle!

FILM SCOUT is the Legion M app that allows our community to rate and rank movies at film festivals like SXSW. The insight gained from our community via FILM SCOUT has led to the acquisition of two films, Memory: The Origins of Alien at Sundance 2019, and Save Yourselves! at Sundance 2020.

South By Southwest (SXSW) is known for its eclectic program of blockbuster premieres mingling with hilarious, weird, and wonderfully bizarre films. Check out this year's lineup by playing the next bout of Film Scout!

Happy scouting!
