Summer Essential Cinema Series Explores
Global Comedy
(Austin, TX) – The Austin Film Society is pleased to announce its upcoming summer Essential Cinema series, “Making the World Laugh: Global Comedy” highlighting wit and humor from around the world. The series will run from June 3 to July 29 on Tuesday evenings at 7 PM at the Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar.
“In what seems to be an increasingly disturbing year full of worries and problems," writes Director of Programming Chale Nafus, "I hope that you will be able to smile, laugh, guffaw, titter, shriek, and ponder with us for nine weeks as we find out what’s funny, witty, humorous, comic, and thought-provoking in contemporary France, Germany, Hong Kong, Thailand, Mexico, Argentina, Israel and postwar USA."
For a complete description of the films, visit www.austinfilm.org or contact the Austin Film Society. All films with English subtitles. The schedule is as follows:
June 3 – PRIVATE FEARS IN PUBLIC PLACES/COEURS (Directed by Alain Resnais) - Austin Premiere
June 10 – KUNG FU HUSTLE (Written & directed by Stephen Chow)
June 17 – SCHULTZE GETS THE BLUES (Written & directed by Michael Schorr)

Partial funding for this series comes from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Texas Commission on the Arts and the City of Austin, under the auspices of the Austin Arts Commission.
Austin Film Society promotes the appreciation of film and supports creative filmmaking by screening rarely seen films, giving grants and other support to emerging filmmakers, and providing access and education about film to youth and the public. Through Austin Studios, which AFS opened in 2000 in partnership with the City of Austin, AFS helps attract film development and production to Austin and Texas. Gala film premieres and the annual Texas Film Hall of Fame Awards raise funds as well as awareness of the impact of film on economy and community. Austin Film Society is ranked among the top film centers in the country and recognized by the National Endowment for the Arts and Directors Guild of America.
