Sundance 2012 Days #2 & #3

Days 2 and 3 were fabulous! Exactly what Sundance should be.. take a look...

Friday- slept in, hit the gym and then hit Main Street for some sights... BBQ lunch, dabbling in some shopping and people watching
Next up- our first film!
"That's What She Said"- Starring Anne Heche & Directed by Carrie Preston
Very typical Sundance flick- funny, quirky... had to be there to enjoy it
After the film, we headed up the mountain to the new luxurious Montage hotel for some libations... after reviewing the website to see hotel rooms were $1,500 per night and a cheeseburger was $19, we opted for a few cocktails and shared some ahi tuna... yum

Saturday- Fantastic day! First, major snowstorm, which was fun- not bad enough to shut things down, but lots and lots of snow all around... so pretty... and reason to bust out the cold weather gear- including the snow hats!
Spa was up first... wonderful time at Align Spa... all 3 girls were more than pleased with our services and will definitely go back. Relaxing.... and then off to lunch at Deer Valley Cafe. Planning for a light lunch ended up being lots of chips & salsa, salads, soups, tacos, and cupcakes all around!
And then... again.. Film time!
"For Ellen"- Starring Paul Dano and John Heder
Okay, this is one of those time that the film was NOT good, but it was fun talking to the actors afterward and sneaking some pics. Again, that is what Sundance is all about.
After the film, we braved the storm and hit Main Street again... despite the inebriated young folks, we enjoyed some High West Whiskey laced hot apple cider, flirted with the local bartenders and bouncers and saw many "lovely" celebrities walking Main Street.
Tonight:
James Marsden (we are seeing him in a film on Monday!)
Scott Speedman
Kate Bosworth
Marley Shelton
Scott Wolf
Fun, fun, fun!!!

This is definitely the stuff Sundance is made of. The town covered in white powder, but not super cold, celebrity sightings, tasty food, belly laughs, and the wonder of funky cinema that no sane person can really comprehend but we enjoy it nonetheless. Bring on the next several days.

Photos up next!
