Sundance on Ice: 20 January
THE CRICKETS ARE A-BLOGGING. Itineraries and hope-filled paragraphs are starting to litter the internet. If the five inches of snow threatened for Chicago doesn’t dump in the next three hours before my flight to Salt Lake City, I’ll join the chorus tomorrow afternoon. Sundance wasn’t in the cards for me until several weeks ago, and the wholehearted lack of expectations that came after giving up on it should be a small, healthy thing. Starting Saturday morning early with a new Canadian documentary on Leonard Cohen should set a grown-up mood for the rest of the festival. There’ll be notes here on Sundance and Slamdance movies, panels, interviews and party-parlay, as well as photographs, through to the bitter end.
Giddy graf of the morning: Shawn Levy in the Oregonian: “The day began cold but clear, and now the sun is blasting down on Park City, reflecting off the snow and taking your breath away. Come out of a 9am movie and walk into it and it's like a merry bomb in your head. I'm currently bunkered down at the Queer Lounge, a lively room at the foot of Main Street where interviews and foto shoots are being conducted, and waiting to talk to the cast of the British comedy Kinky Boots." [Ah, the wondrous world of WiFi.]
