I Wrote These Things: Pre-Sundance Edition

I'm headed off to Park City, Utah today, for my sixth year covering the big ol' snowy indie clusterfuck known as the Sundance Film Festival. But before I go, here's a few recent items I've run over at Flavorwire...

I wrote about Peter Berg and Mark Wahlberg's "docbusters," and what they say about the stories we want to be told about America right now.

I floated the notion that artists and celebrities actually can be helpful in #TheResistance - as irritants.

On Oscar nomination due day, I offered up some less-buzzed awards-worthy performances.

I reviewed Bright Lights: Starring Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, which is wonderful.

I weighed The Founder against the current figure it can't avoid invoking.

And, of course, DVD/VOD guides for 1/10 and 1/17.
