Violet Crown Theatre to still screen films after SXSW cancelation

AUSTIN, Texas - Despite SXSW being canceled, one local theatre is making sure films get the chance to be seen.

The Violet Crown is debuting “Feels Good Man,” a documentary about the internet meme Pepe the Frog and the creator's battle to take back his image from those who used it for their own purposes.

The producers have Austin ties and are traveling back to be part of the event. Being able to still have the screening was important to them.
