Welcome to the first, hopefully annual, Weekend Warrior Sundance Awards, where I go through the couple dozen movies I had a chance to see over the course of the past week and pick some of my favorite things.
I ended up seeing roughly thirty movies in total, only walking out of a couple (that won’t be mentioned), and overall, it was a generally decent Sundance, although only a few movies really stood out and will be remembered later in the year when we start talking about next year’s Oscars.
Oddly, I missed many of the movies that won actual awards at Sundance, so I’ve decided to give a few of my own.

It was to have premièred before a select audience of journalists and politicians in Rome's celebrated Maxxi Museum of 21st Century Art, but now Girlfriend In A Coma has been put back on the shelf until after Italy's elections on the 24th of this month. The film, which examines the political career of Silvio Berlusconi, has apparently raised concerns in the Italian Ministry of Culture. Could it unfairly bias a vote in which Mr Berlusconi is a candidate? That's anyone's guess, because according to its co-director Bill Emmott, nobody - including staff at the ministry - has yet seen it.
"Too many Italians, which especially means those in politics and in official public positions, do not want to confront and understand the truth and reality of what has happened in Italy over the past 20 years," Emmott said in a statement on his website. Arguing that an incident like this would.
