The Show Goes On, Lupe Fiasco

One of the best times of the year is coming up.

It's time for Utah Park City to get artsy. The 2011 Sundance Film Festival is almost here!

Sundance movies are not for everyone. Some of the content, or the way the movie is portrayed is not going to appeal to everyone.  For me it's works of art, and an outlet for them.  BUT if you look hard enough there are plenty of diamonds in the rough.

Some of the recent diamonds are: (500) Days of Summer,  Napoleon Dynamite, An Education, Joan Rivers--A Piece of Work, Little Miss Sunshine, Man on Wire, American Teen

For my loyal blog readers, I want to share a little bit of the creative work with you! Surprisingly a lot of Sundance movies/shorts  will be going viral this year.  For example you can stream a full documentary and panel about how several people live for 24 hours. There's also a short that's full of shell-fully good charm that went viral in 2010.


In the coming days, I will post the where and how-tos on these!

Crash World by Hilary Duff

Tonight was interesting. I watched the PCTV (Park City TV) for over two hours. It was all sundance, parties, snowboarding, and a day in the life of Method Man. It was very interesting, and shocking. Tonight I realized that the life style shown is the one I yearn to live, which makes me question what I think in life is important. Granted I KNOW and FEEL my where I stand and where I will always stand, but it somehow is inviting. I am also reading Celebrity Detox. Very interesting because I can see both points of view expressed in the book, and the addiction that "hollywood" can be. I for one have that addiction, as can be seen in most conversations I have. This week my goal is to give greater meaning to my life, by not talking about the shallow events of the world, and focusing on my reality. Time to break the illusion.

Note: This post is not meant to be depressing, or cause insight into greater issues. I just think it is interesting that one poignant vignette can reflect something in our life.
