In From the Cold: Walking the Beige Carpet at Sundance 2017
January 23, 2017
Things got rough in Park City this year: first the cyber attack (currently being investigated by the FBI), then a power outage that led to several screenings being cancelled, and now a major snowstorm. Sundancers are thinking twice before leaving their hotels and condos for post-sunset parties – is it worth it to face temperatures in the low 20s and walk through ice and sludge? There is, however, another beige carpet, and a rather warm one: the path leading to premieres at the Eccles. It’s a unique experience, quite different from the papparazzi madness of Hollywood festivals and events: more intimate, more relaxed. And, considering what’s happening outside, the hottest place to be in Park City.
