REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Thu., May 4, 2000

Ellen Spiro Retrospective will present several excerpts from the documentaries of this UT film professor, including Roam Sweet Home, Diana’s Hair Ego, Greetings From Out Here, The Shampoo King, and others, as well as what is promised to be a “sexy surprise.” Spiro will be present for a Q&A following the screening. The Texas Documentary Tour is co-sponsored by the Austin Film Society, the UT Department of RTF, The Austin Chronicle, KLRU-TV, and SXSW Film.
