This year's Sundance Film Festival has been very quiet for us. Besides volunteering for 3 days, we only saw three movies and that was it. Of the two documentaries we saw, we liked “the Russian Woodpecker” most, even though it had a few quirks.
It was about the Ukraine-Russian war and a warning cry against Putin's relentless reach. The other documentary, “the Wolfpack” was a little bit more of a stretch as it clearly felt tinkered with a lot, something I have a hard time accepting coming from a non-fiction film.
The best was the drama (which ended up winning both the Grand Jury and Audience Awards), a wonderful story, extremely well told “Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.” We'll try to see more flick next year if we get better organized and really feel like it!
