Half Nelson opens Austin with AFF ties

Turns out 2005 Narrative Short Jury winner Jeremy Kipp Walker (Goodnight Bill) also co-produced the new film Half Nelson. The film stars the often underrated Ryan Gosling and features an original score by Broken Social Scene.



Half Nelson revolves around an inner-city junior high teacher with drug problem who forms an unlikely friendship with one of his students after she discovers his secret. The film is already open in select cities and opens in Austin at the Regal Arbor Theater on Sept. 15th.
