圣丹斯上空的彩 Clouds dance above Sundance

圣丹斯电影节

尽管城外的景色如此美丽,但今天来到帕克城的人,大多是为了在城里举行的圣丹斯电影节,这是美国独立电影人最大的庆典。昆汀·塔伦蒂诺、史蒂文·索德伯格等好莱坞导演的职业生涯都是从这里开始的。每年都有一批年轻电影人怀揣梦想来到这里,希望能卖出自己的作品。

人们普遍误以为该电影节是由罗伯特·雷德福创立的。实际上,圣丹斯电影节的前身是犹他电影节,由斯特林·范·瓦格南于1978年在盐湖城创办,还邀请了雷德福担任该电影节的主席。此后,雷德福便一直参与其中,并将电影节主办地搬到帕克城。圣丹斯电影节也逐渐成为美国最大的独立电影节。过去十年间,圣丹斯电影节还在伦敦香港等地设置分会场,规模不断壮大。

Sundance Film Festival opens in Park City

As beautiful as this vista is, most of today's visitors to Park City are there to spend the day inside. Sundance Film Festival, the nation's biggest celebration of independent cinema, opens today and runs through January 29. The careers of Hollywood directors such as Quentin Tarantino and Steven Soderbergh were launched here, and every year a new crop of greenhorns arrives in this mountain enclave with the dream that they'll leave with a distribution deal.

It's a common misconception that the festival was founded by Robert Redford. It was actually started as the Utah Film Festival in Salt Lake City in 1978 by Sterling Van Wagenen, who then brought on Redford as chairman. Redford has remained involved with the festival ever since, presiding over its move to Park City and transformation into the largest festival of its kind in the United States. In the past decade, Sundance London and Sundance Hong Kong have expanded the mission of the Sundance Institute.
