At SXSW 2007, we had the documentary Run Granny Run, featuring “Granny D.” In 2008, we’ll have Run Fat Boy Run, starring Simon Pegg. This is a really endearing, entertaining, and actually sorta uplifting comedy that should help unite both die-hard Pegg fans, and the uninitiated. In short: it’s a Simon Pegg movie you can take your parents to see. The film was a smash hit in its native UK, and now Picturehouse will release it stateside this Spring. View the U.S. trailer here, and catch the film at SXSW 2008.
