...this week. The list of Sundance students over the years is long and impressive. It includes Quentin Tarantino, Julie Taymor, Paul Thomas Anderson, Sherman Alexie and Anna Deavere Smith. So when you watch 25-year-old Princess Peter-Raboff, an Alaska native and member of the Venetie Indian Reservation, shoot one of her first ever scenes with award-winning Hungarian director Gyula Gazdag offering pointers and encouragement, you can't help wondering if a young genius is finding...
Fellows don't actually make their movies in the month-long lab, but they shoot dry runs in the hope that they'll one day get the financing to do it for real. (Sundance helps in that process.) And it's not like back home, where you have your roommate or maybe some waiter read for you. Here, Ally Sheedy (St. Elmo's Fire and more recently High Art) plays the role you wrote, or maybe it's Mary Alice (star of the Broadway productions of Having Our Say, Fences and The Shadow Box), or Delroy Lindo (Clockers, Malcolm...

It was all scintillating soccer, blissfully devoid of drunks and hooligans--just hundreds of thousands of soccer-loving Americans out for good, clean...
...wants to go along its chosen path probably depends on the state of one's mental health. That of professor Michael Faraday (Jeff Bridges) is pretty shaky when we encounter him. He has recently lost his wife, an FBI agent, in a shoot-out that should never have happened. He's also not exactly a model of scholarly dispassion as he teaches a course in the politics of terror, while more than half convinced that there are more and larger conspiracies at work in our world than anyone is admitting. The movie is, indeed, rather good on the erratic...
