21 to open SXSW Film Festival

21, the film adaptation of Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six M.I.T. Students Who Took Vegas for Millions, will open this year's SWSX Film Festival on March 7. The book (and movie by extension) follows the story of a group of students who used card counting to win millions. The film stars Jim Sturgess, Kate Bosworth, Kevin Spacey and Laurence Fishburne and comes out for reals on March 21.
To get you primed on the art of card counting (hey, it's not illegal, but it will get you booted from the casinos), check out this piece in this past Sunday's New York Times Style section.
