May 24 - 29, 2011 | In celebration of the Texas Film Commission's 40th Anniversary, the TFC partnered with the Paramount Austin for a week-long celebration of Texas films as part of the Paramount's annual Summer Classic Film Series.

Looking back into our marketing materials of that time, we found a collection of notes and fun facts surrounding the films that screened as a part of the series:

  • Silkwood | First feature to use the Studios at Las Colinas in Irving, Texas.
  • The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas | Premiered in Austin on July 11, 1982 at the Paramount Theatre, with cast in attendance and a parade on Congress Avenue.
