Karina's Adventures in Park City, Chapter 3: Party Gossip

Remember when I said I was swearing off Main Street? That vow has been broken already. Saturday night, I headed down to the Delta/WireImage Lounge (no, I wasn't making that up in yesterday's post -- it actually exists) for FILMMAKER Magazine's 15th Anniversary bash. 15 minutes after the party's official start time, the slow-moving line to get in was already trailing some ways down the block. Inside, revellers (including various members of the Four Eyed Monsters camp, filmmaker Caveh Zahedi, and SXSW Film's Matt Dentler and Jarod Neece) enjoyed free Absolut and Stella Artois (served up by bartenders dressed as porntastic stewardesses), as they attempted to chat over the blare of Coldplay and The Shins. Here are some of the hot topics of conversation:A.J. Schnack, director of They Might Be Giants doc Gigantic and About a Son, the forthcoming doc about Kurt Cobain, discussed the difference between opening a film at Toronto (as About a Son did), and opening at Sundance. "At Toronto," Shnack says, "It's like everyone is there to find out, 'Are these Oscar buzz films good enough?' I mean, we got enough press, but Toronto is a festival where it's still possible to play under the radar. Unlike Sundance, where everyone's like, 'What's the great discovery? Where's the new talent?'"

Someone has made a terrible mistake – they've leaked a partial list of this year's Sundance parties to us
nerds. Since most of us on the Cinematical/Blogging Sundance team like to check into our hyperbolic chambers by 11 at
the latest, we thought we'd pass this highly classified information on to you. We'll update this list daily until the
Festival ends or the Party Gods strike us down (whichever comes first). Feel free to post your own party deets and
gossip in the comments.6:00 PM

Sundance: Death of Penn halts Darwin press
Filed under: Sundance »
When news hit the wires late Tuesday that the
body of Chris Penn – star of over 50 films, from Footloose to Reservoir Dogs to Starsky and
Hutch, and brother of Oscar winner Sean – had been found in a Santa Monica condo, most outlets didn't file
the item alongside their coverage of Sundance. But Penn was fourth-billed in The Darwin Awards, the much-anticipated film by Finn Taylor
which premieres here in Park City tonight, and the actor's death is already having an impact on that film's festival
blitz. Out of respect for their co-star, the film's actors (including Winona Ryder, Joseph Fiennes and David Arquette)
have cancelled all planned interviews and media appearences. Tonight's premiere will go through as planned, but sans
press line. We'll be seeing Darwin tomorrow and will have a review up as soon as we can. There's also a Darwin
awards party tonight, but with cast and crew in mourning, we imagine it probably won't be much of a party, despite the
fact that Metallica is scheduled to play in a room the size of my black faux-crocodile handbag.Sundance Party MetaList
