The Advocate Goes to Sundance

The Advocate Goes to Sundance

Sundance_main

If it's January, it must be Sundance. Let The Advocate bring you the latest from the country's largest independent cinema festival with exclusive looks at the breakout stars, films, and directors that will be populating your local cineplex for years to come.

The Advocate returns to Park City again this year to bring you the latest in queer cinema at the leading festival for independent film. With the writers strike showing no sign of ending soon, this year's Sundance should prove to be a full-on feeding frenzy, with studios gobbling up as much product as they can to fill out their slates. Advocate film critic Kyle Buchanan will be bringing you reviews and interviews with the directors who are shepherding the queer content. Arts & entertainment editor Corey Scholibo will be updating this site regularly with news, events, gossip, and the lowdown on all the swag. It's going to be a cold one, so sit back in the comfort of your own home and let The Advocate take you to the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.

Catch up on the latest news from Sundance with our editors' most recent blog postings.
