Parker Posey was all set to host last night's awards ceremony, but fell ill — and so, as live-bloggers Eric Hynes and Claiborne Smith report, Sundance festival director John Cooper reluctantly took the helm, choking up a bit right at the top as he drove himself through a remembrance of Bingham Ray. Rebounding, he brought on director and actress Katie Aselton as co-host and it was on to the awards. You can actually watch all this here (select "2012 Sundance Film Festival"). An overview of what the critics are saying about the winners:
Grand Jury Prize: Documentary. The House I Live In, "a lucid, long-view unpacking of the War on Drugs from Eugene Jarecki, who ably dissected the lead-up to the Iraq War in Why We Fight." The Boston Globe's Ty Burr: "The movie marshals a wide selection of talking heads, from Oklahoma prison guards and Reagan-era appointees to street dealers and Jarecki's own nanny,...

"One of the gems of this year's festival," begins Jeremy Kay in the Guardian, "The Surrogate is such an unexpected crowd-pleaser that awards specialist Fox Searchlight wasted little time snapping up worldwide rights on Monday evening for around $6m — easily the biggest deal of the festival so far." Of course, he wrote that on Tuesday, but in the New York Times today, Brooks Barnes confirms that, going on the information that's been made public, it's still this year's biggest acquisition. Kay: "John Hawkes delivers a mesmerizing performance, but this time there is no trace of menace in the actor who spooked Park City audiences last year as a cult leader in Martha Marcy May Marlene. What's also new is that he has a lead role all to himself. It's classic awards bait: a polio victim, virtually paralyzed and confined most of the day to an iron lung, resolves to lose...

Yesterday, the Sundance Institute announced that this year's Alfred P Sloan Feature Film Prize goes to Jake Schreier's Robot & Frank and Musa Syeed's Valley of Saints; the filmmakers will split the $20K that comes with it. An Alfred P Sloan Commissioning Grant is awarded to Katy Scoggin for Flood and a Lab Fellowship goes to Logan Kibens and Sharon Greene for Operator.
The whole batch of prizes is part of the Sundance Institute Science-in-Film Initiative, which "supports the development and exhibition of new independent film projects that explore science and technology themes or that depict scientists, engineers and mathematicians in engaging and innovative ways," so the jury's explained that it's selected Robot & Frank for its "humane and prescient portrait of the relationship between an aging father and his non-human caregiver, and for raising profound questions about the role of technology in our collective future" and Valley of Saints for its "brave,...

"The most divisive dramatic competition entry yet to screen at Sundance, Simon Killer is the second feature directed by Antonio Campos, director of Afterschool and producer of last year's Sundance hit Martha Marcy May Marlene," begins the La Weekly's Karina Longworth. "Like Martha Marcy, Simon is built around an attractive, enigmatic young person whose ostensible recent trauma — in this case, the titular recent college grad, played by Brady Corbet, comes to Paris in an effort to recover from a rough break-up — both muddles their vision, and complicates the film's view of their behavior. They are character studies which willfully obfuscate the truth about their main characters, psychological thrillers only offering misleading glimpses into psyches."
"Taking up with a local prostitute (Mati Diop)," writes Jen Yamato for Movieline, "Simon insinuates himself into her life driven by loneliness and longing, but piece by piece the portrait he paints of himself, to her and to the audience,...

A few months ago, Legendary Pictures announced that they would produce a movie devoted to iconic guitarist Jimi Hendrix. Today, The Hollywood Reporter writes that Angryfilms and Bellport announced another Hendrix-themed project.
Slide will be a fictional dramatization of the infamous "lost weekend" in 1969. The urban legend is that Hendrix was kidnapped as part of a stunt orchestrated by his manager. The story for Silde, however, will see two mobsters mistakenly apprehend Hendrix while they're on the run from their duped boss.
The writer-director for the project is Ray "R.H." Greene, who wrote Incarnadine: The True Memoirs of Count Dracula and directed Schlock! The Secret History of American Movies. Hendrix's music won't play much of a part in the movie; instead, Hendrix will fraternize with the mobsters and correct his drug problems in the process, according to THR.
Past screen adaptations of the left-handed virtuoso's life include Hendrix, a 2000 made-for-tv movie,...
