After debuting as a work-in-progress at the On Location: Memphis film festival last spring and premiering as a completed work at Indie Memphis last fall, Better Than Something, the documentary portrait of late Memphis musician Jay Reatard, will get a full theatrical run here, running March 2nd through March 8th at Studio on the Square, the New York-based filmmakers announced this morning. Better Than Something will open concurrently in Brooklyn, Seattle, and Portland, and will continue to other cities in the following weeks.
I wrote about the film in our Indie Memphis preview in November.
