My Sundance Reviews

Sundance is over. My brain is still trying to catch up from Festival Boot Camp. Film Threat was awesome enough to get Whitney and I press passes in exchange for reviews. Luckily, we're living pretty close to Sundance so getting out there wasn't a big problem--except when the snow storm hit. That was a fun drive. Overall, it was incredible. We saw some great, great movies, one of which will most likely be my number one of 2009. If another film affects me like Lee Daniel's Push: Based on the Novel by Sapphire did, I be more then surprised. To read my Film Threat review of Push, click HERE.

Push ended up winning both the Grand Jury and the Audience U.S. Dramatic awards. Mo'Nique who plays a villain more evil than Darth Vader, also won a Special Jury Prize for Acting. It left Sundance without distribution but I'm sure somebody wil have the guts to release this heavy-hitting drama.

10 days. 18 short films. 23 features.

Here's a list of the features I saw. The bold titles are must-sees.
