Created as an extension of the SXSW Music Festival, SXSW Film has a decidedly indie flavor. While you’ll surely be out late watching films, hearing music, or attending parties, don’t miss out on breakfast: in particular the Austin favorite, migas. As for where to spend those few hours of rest, try the Hotel San Jose (right). The atmosphere at the hotel is so lively though that it might be hard to leave the lobby and gardens to settle in for some sleep. At left, Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler attend the SXSW screening of their new movie Reign On Me on March 14, 2007.
