Sundance Film Festival Needs Reinvigoration in Boulder

Sundance Film Festival Needs Reinvigoration in Boulder

On a recent Tuesday afternoon, just days after the final Sundance Film Festival in Park City began, I walked down Main Street and was stunned at how calm things already appeared. The crowds had thinned, a table for lunch at the No Name Saloon was easy to acquire, and the dulcet tones of power tools filled the air as the Chase Sapphire Lounge was dismantled. The salesperson in the custom knife shop with a $1,200 pizza cutter on offer — albeit the most beautiful pizza cutter I, personally, have ever seen — said that more customers had started to trickle in now that the fervor on Main Street had died down and the roads were clearer. The festival was never as good of a time for foot traffic, he explained. The one place where a crowd assembled was outside The Egyptian.

It’s a bittersweet finale for the country’s premier independent film festival, founded by Robert Redford in 1978. With a gala, the festival plans to pay tribute to the late actor and director, who died of natural causes in September. “Before he passed earlier this year, [Redford] shared with us this quote: ‘Everybody has a story,’” says the festival’s director, Eugene Hernandez. “This notion is such a great framing for a festival that has always been about finding and sharing with audiences the stories that come from all over the world.” This year, the festival will screen films that got their starts at Sundance, including Little Miss Sunshine, which went on to …

Disney Worker Recovering After Struck by Runaway Prop Boulder

Disney Worker Recovering After Struck by Runaway Prop Boulder

A Disney World worker sustained injuries on Tuesday while running into the path of a giant prop boulder that veered off track as part of the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Orlando. The incident, captured on social media video, showed the inflated faux boulder used in the Raiders of the Lost Ark stunt show’s opening sequence veering off its usual track and appearing to barrel towards the seated audience at the edge of the stage.   The Disney worker is then seen running into the path of the dislodged runaway boulder and being knocked over, an act of heroism that likely saved audience members from serious injury. Fellow Disney workers then rush to the shaken colleague, who is helped to his feet and led offstage.

A Disney spokesperson said in a statement obtained by People: “We’re focused on supporting our cast member, who …
