...festival officially began last Thursday, but it isn't too late to handicap this year's potential contenders for Indie Goddess. You can probably cross porn star Annabel Chong off the list, even though a documentary about her, um, orgiastic talents sold out faster than almost every other Sundance screening. Former brat packer Ally Sheedy, who resurfaced after a decade of TV movies with her acclaimed performance in last year's High Art, has a chance with two new films, the dysfunctional-family weepie The Autumn Heart and the music-industry romp Sugar Town.
