Tarantino Helps Kick Off Film Event
Contributed by Mark - 11:50 3/12/2001
AUSTIN -- "Carrie" star Sissy Spacek and "Pulp Fiction" director Quentin Tarantino are among the big names helping the Austin Film Society kick off its first hall of fame event. As part of the annual South by Southwest film and music festival, which runs through March 18, the society will induct five people into its first class Friday night. Spacek, screenwriter Bill Wittliff, actor Rip Torn, columnist Liz Smith and agent Mike Simpson are the inductees. Presenters include Tarantino, director Robert Benton, screenwriter Anne Rapp and former Texas Gov. Ann Richards. Society director Rebecca Campbell said support from so many VIPs proves the Austin film community is strong. The group has been working feverishly to pull together the last-minute event. Volunteers will transform new film studios at the old Robert Mueller Municipal Airport into a Texas-size party, Campbell said. "We think it's going to be beautiful, magical and legendary", she said, adding that the group wants to make hall of fame induction an annual event. The 1,200-member Austin Film Society was organized in 1986 to promote appreciation of film and to support filmmakers.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- In the opening scene of "Pulp Fiction", Amanda Plummer and Tim Roth jump up from their table in a Los Angeles coffee shop, whip out their pistols and kick off a brazen early morning holdup. What follows is a surge of power. Not gun power. Guitar power. It's Dick Dale ripping out the opening riffs of "Misirlou", a ferocious, nails-scraping-the-slate fusion of frenzied flamenco and Motor City metal that jump-starts Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film.
