The Texas Film Round-Up is returning to the borderlands and bringing along a free screening of one of Kevin Costner's earliest films.

The Texas Archive of the Moving Image will be in San Elizario at the end of the month to present the 1985 indie film, "Fandango", which was filmmed in West Texas and includes scenes around San Elizario's historic plaza. There will also be a day of film collecting allowing borderland residents to drop-off home movies for free digitization and archiving.

Join Host Charles Horak to discuss this screening and film round-up with Elizabeth Hansen, Managing Director of the Texas Archive of the Moving Image.

Charles Horak didn't sleep much as a child, preferring instead to watch movies on late night TV. Not much has changed since then, except that he now shares his life-long passion for movies with others. Horak's association with On Film began in the summer of 2002 when he was interviewed by the show's originator, Cynthia Haines. In the summer of 2005, Horak took over for Haines as host of the show.
