Sundance 2007 | Wrapup Print E-mail

As of this writing, Snow Angels has yet to be picked up for theatrical distribution in the United States, which makes me sad for the state of American cinema.

I can now tell people that I have seen a film with MC Hammer.

While We Are the Strange doesn't really look like anything you've ever seen before, it doesn't really work, and Strange doesn't use his innovations as the means to any sort of end. It feels like what it would be like if Henry Selick and Jonas Akerlund collaborated on an Insane Clown Posse music video, if that gives you an idea.

In the Shadow of the Moon is a documentary about all of the men who made it to the moon, what the political climate was like at the time, etc. Also, it features never-before-seen footage of the moon and what the Earth looks like from its surface. Why don't they teach this stuff in school?

As it turns out, Waitress was selected for Sundance mere days before Adrienne Shelly died, and it was sold because, well, it's really solid. There's nothing too groundbreaking here (it's about a small-town pie waitress (played by Keri Russell) who has an affair and wants to get away from her abusive husband), but it's well made and thoroughly entertaining and well cast and funny.

I don't follow the trades as closely as I probably should when I'm at Sundance and don't really know the ins and outs of buying and selling films at the market here, so I probably should shut up.

I've found that if I put Chapstick on right before I leave the lodge to walk to the theaters in the morning, it freezes on the outside of my lips, so when I arrive it looks like I'm wearing white lipstick. After a few minutes inside, it melts down and is no longer a problem.

This "first two-thirds bad, last third good" thing has become a trend as of late of the films I've seen here.

I think I need more life experience to make an educated determination about if The Savages is a good film or not. Maybe once my parents get old enough that I can dump them off in a nursing home, I'll like it better.
