...York, the locals of Park City, on whose backs the festival rests, come together to watch the “Best of Fest” at several Sundance venues. I was lucky enough to get tickets to the Audience Award Winner for Documentary, “The Cove,” which focused on the annual slaughter of dolphins in Japan. It was one of the most moving films I had ever seen in my life and was so intense it played more like an action movie than a documentary. It was the first and only movie I saw that...
...Crystal Cove Gift Shop offers all kinds of relief from the campaign trail. There are handy guidebooks--like The Beginner's Guide for the Recently Deceased--and trays of polished stones. Ametrine, perfect for prospective running mates, "releases tension, improves compatibility" while jasper promotes "harmony and global awareness." Ron Nagy, a historian and researcher at the local museum, leads Wednesday-evening Ghostwalks to help people learn to spot the spirits around them. I asked him about the mood of the country.

These arguments seem inconsequential when you take a walk along the Fletcher Cove beach. It's not the white-sanded littoral paradise of a thousand movies but a grungy, rock-strewn place. A municipal storm drain releases onto the main part of the beach, and a sign warns that the water issuing from it may be unhealthy. The ugly concrete drain structure is maligned by graffiti - "Rizzo [hearts] Jenny" - and gnats attack any exposed skin as soon as you set foot on Fletcher Cove sand. Big, bulbous, black stink bugs fearlessly investigate your feet as soon...
