| Film School Rejects
Since our arrival in the snowy mountains of Utah I, along with many other temporary transplants from around the world, have been puzzled about one thing: the weather. It has been uncharacteristically warm and sunny in Park City, almost to the point of robbing us of that frigidity that makes it feel like Sundance. No one has been able to explain it, not even the weatherman....

When the news first hit last week that Sam Rockwell and Mickey Rourke had been cast in Iron Man 2, Marvel started contacting various news outlets (including us) telling us that it hadn’t been announced by them and thus wasn’t confirmed. In addition, the conflicting reports from both trade magazines made the whole situation quite confusing and no one was sure...

Sundance Review: Sam Rockwell Lights Up ‘Moon’
| Film School Rejects
Heading into Moon, the Sam Rockwell led low-budget science fiction film from first time director Duncan Jones, I was both excited and skeptical. It is easy after all, to be skeptical of any low-budget, ambitious science fiction film. Especially when it takes place entirely on the surface of the moon. There we find Sam Bell, the caretaker of the Sarang mining station owned...
