Sundance Film Festival January 17-27: Park City, Utah
The Sundance Film Festival has begun, and I sure do wish I could be there. Sundance is the largest independent film festival in the U.S. I love films. Good films, that is.
Here are some of the films premiering, and I provided a link to more details such as the film's description, filmmaker(s) bio, and intros to other premiering films. Hopefully, many of them (including those not listed here) will make it to to big screen, or we will be able to gain access through DVD. Sundance 2008 Online Film Guide
