Sundance begins its 10 day Fest!


Sundance 2009 may not be as glitzy as years past but the films do not seem to be lacking in any way. Along with many short films & documentaries, many full length feature films will also be making their premieres starting tomorrow, Friday, January 16th across many cinema venues in the Park City area. So whether you happen to be there or just can't wait for these films to get released, we'll go through daily on what ones seem to be promising a theater release outside of Utah.

Tomorrow's Pick is
Helen, directed by Sandra Nettlebeck; starring Ashley Judd, Goran Visnjic, Lauren Lee Smith, Alexia Fast, Alberta Watson, and David Hewlett. The film focuses on a woman who has a seemingly perfect life but begins a spiraling battle with Bipolar disorder. When she has to be hospitalized because of the debilitating spin her depressions lead her to, she begins a different journey towards understanding something she cannot control.

I am so anxious to see this film, if only I weren't a 17 hour drive away from the festival, I might almost be tempted to try and chance getting into one of the early screenings. Here's hoping it makes widescreen distribution and not just art-houses for it's full release.
