It's been difficult to avoid watching the trailer of The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn, for it's been tediously ubiquitous in the blogosphere during the last couple of weeks. I don't intend to see the film any time soon for many reasons, but to expose them here would be an attempt at argumentative elaboration of what can essentially be summed up in two words: performance capture.

It's really annoying to leave a film festival with the pesky certainty that, after all the queuing and waiting, you're getting back home missing that one film you should have seen.
The seemingly endless film programme brochures don't help too much, since they usually praise the virtues of pictures that turn out to be disappointing and plainly describe those which in the end walk away as festival champs.

2010 Sundance Film Festival kicked off with the screening of Howl, directed by former documentalists Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman (The Celluloid Closet).
I didn't catch the film's premiere, where Sundance creator Robert Redford and Howl star James Franco set the ball rolling for this year's fetival, but I had a chance to see the picture on Tuesday morning screening.

Snow came back to Park City today and I found shelter in the Prospector Square Theater, where I caught one of the screenings of Yo, también (Me, Too). The film was preceded by the short film How I Met Your Father, by director Álex Montoya, which was honoured yesterday with a Special Jury Award in the short film category.

Some cinemagoers queued up last night up to six hours to catch the world premiere of Rodrigo Cortés' second long feature Buried in the Library Center Theater at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and, for those eager for a breathtaking, nail-biting experience, it was worth the wait.
The claustrophobic script by Chris Sparling takes lone onscreen actor Ryan Reynolds, a US contractor working in Iraq, on an agonizing countdown when he wakes up buried in a coffin with a lighter, a cell phone and the daunting task of getting a $5 million ramson or else give in to the fate of pushing Iraqi daisies.
