Documentary lovers have been flocking to the streets of Denton for the past week to check out the Thin Line Film Fest. Featuring dozens of feature-length docs and shorts, covering everything from social issues to the absurdities of life, Thin Line is all reality, all the time. If you haven’t had a chance to take in any of the screenings, then we suggest you head north, because though the festival is coming to a close (it runs through February 18), you still have time to take in some great docs. Slated for the screen this Sunday: In No Great Hurry — 13 Lessons in Life with Saul Leiter, The Anderson Monarchs, Building Babel and the latest offering from Ken Burns, The Central Park Five. Sunday screenings start at 2 p.m. at the Campus Theatre, 214 W. Hickory St. Tickets are $6 to $8. Call 888-TXFILM-0 or visit thinlinefilmfest.com.
