     ABOUT ALAMO DRAFTHOUSE AND THE ROLLING ROADSHOW:
     Opened by husband-and-wife team Tim and Karrie League in 1997 as a small,
 single-screen cult movie venue, the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema has since expanded
 to include three multi-screen theatres in Austin, and their famous 'Rolling
 Roadshow' -- a mobile outdoor projection unit complete with a full 35mm
 changeover projection system, stereo sound and a 40-foot inflatable screen.
 The Rolling Roadshow is just one facet of the many film events -- some silly,
 some gastronomically intense, and all innovative -- the Alamo Drafthouse
 offers to Austin movie aficionados.  This summer, we're offering select
 American cities a taste of the Alamo experience with our 2005 Rolling Roadshow
 Tour.
