SUNDANCE: Weinberg's Sundance Scorecard
Summary
With Senh, Jen, and Terrible Tim Ryan roaming the streets of Park City, the Tomato readers have had plenty of Sundance reports to pick through. But I thought I'd contribute my own two pennies to the coverage, and give you the best-to-worst lowdown on the myriad movies I took in. Back to Article

on Jan 26 2006 08:17 PM [b]Scott Weinberg Rocks RT's Socks Off[/b] Gotta hand it to you, your movie viewing rate is indeed awesome! Too bad we missed each other at Wordplay & Awesome...I totally agree with you on both counts! (Reply to this) |
on Jan 26 2006 08:59 PM [b]The Descent[/b] I'm glad to hear "The Descent" is worth the wait. I thought "Dog Soldiers" was one of the best horror films of recent years, and it's a shame it never got a wide theatrical release in the U.S. "The Descent" is already out overseas on DVD, and I've been tempted to buy a Region 2 copy.

on Jan 27 2006 02:21 PM Sounds like there will be a lot of interesting small films for me to look forward to. Why didn't you see The Science of Sleep? Which sounded like one of the most interesting films at Sundance. (Reply to this) |
on Jan 27 2006 03:24 PM In reply to this comment (#830438) The press screening for "Science" was scheduled too late for me to attend. And I was unable to get a ticket for the public screening. Alas, that sorta thing happens somewhat often at Sundance. It was a "wanna seeeee" for me, but it didn't work out. I heard VERY positive things about the movie, tho. (Reply to this) |

on Jan 27 2006 11:38 PM [b]Science of Sleep[/b] It was pretty cool, as far as Gondry goes (lots of stop motion and wacky visuals) plus Gael Garcia Bernal was grrrreat. And cute. And Tim's fave lady of the screen, Charlotte Gainsbourg, was super in her "i'm so plain i'm hot" kinda way...one of us will post a review soon...i'm looking forward to seeing what other people thought as well. We also saw a bunch of other films screened today (last day of the fest): The Illusionist, Thank You for Smoking, Neil Young H.O.G. (Reply to this) |

on Jan 28 2006 05:36 PM [b]The Descent[/b] I was at the premier of "The Descent" last Monday at midnight and it was totally awesome. I've never been so scared in my life! It was the funnest movie I've seen at Sundance this year. I can't wait to see it in distribution. (Reply to this) |
