Sincerely Sundance
Watching movies in the indie film world's Mecca
PARK CITY, UTAH -- The Sundance Film Festival has long been a fixture in my mind's eye. An impressionable teenager when Steven Soderbergh's Sex, Lies, and Videotape caused a sensation at the 1989 festival (and eventually with me via VHS), I found the idea of the snow-capped resort town of Park City strangely exotic, a place where filmmakers, critics and film buffs convened to celebrate what the festival's mission statement describes as "the development of artists of independent vision and to the exhibition of their new work."
