The T.J. and Dave documentary is being shown at the Alamo Drafthouse Ritz on Monday March 8 and Wednesday March 10 with the director Alex Karpovsky in person.

I know a lot of you may have caught this the last time it was screened in Austin, but if you haven't seen it yet you should. It's a really well done concert film of a really solid show. I saw it when it was screened a while back at The Hideout but I'm going to try to see it a second time.

Described by The New York Times as "Second City-seasoned masters of long form improv," TJ Jagodowski and David Pasquesi have become living legends in their field. Exploring the trust that underlies their relationship and the forces that govern their improvisation, TRUST US, THIS IS ALL MADE UP is a portrait of two remarkably talented friends and features an unforgettable live performance recorded at New York's Barrow Street Theater. Whether you're a student of improvisation, a fan of live comedy or simply interested in the basis of human imagination and partnership, this journey will leave you laughing, guessing, and in awe of an altogether wonderful feat.

Just spoke to Alex and it seems that there is a bit of a glitch in getting the DVDs distributed.

In the meantime, though, he is going to be selling some bootleg copies of the movies that will include audio commentary from TJ & Dave and special footage from last year's SXSW.

I heard Alex talk about the audio commentary last night and that sounded really interesting. They discuss the moves they make in the show and why they make them and so on. I haven't listened to it yet, but I'm very keen to.

He sold the DVDs after the screening last night for around $15 (I think).
