Sundance – Day 7
9AM in snowy Park City. Our last full day at Sundance. It will be good to be back in the familiar urban friction tomorrow night. But first up for today: pick up a lost badge at the Yarrow, then head downstairs for an 11:30AM screening of FUNNY GAMES, Michael Haneke’s American remake of his own German language film from 1997. Since the film was originally conceived as an attack on the American movie industry’s obsession with violence, it’s most appropriate that Haneke is shooting his latest film as a shot-for-shot remake (I think this new version may have end credits that last a few seconds longer), except with a Hollywood-courting cast: Naomi Watts, Michael Pitt, and Brady Corbett. I’ll be back later after the film.
