Park City. Roundup.

You don't have to be in Park City to spend nearly as much time keeping up with all the goings on at Sundance, Slamdance and the rest as anyone actually there. If you're so inclined, you'll be following indieWIRE's firehose of buzz, watching the Cinematical crew's "Roundtable Video" and lots more video at Movie City News, where David Poland writes: "A very smart young lady said today, when I mentioned my disappointment with Friends with Money, 'By the end of the festival, you'll be begging to see something as good as Friends with Money. And she may be right."

So here's a roundup of reviews so far, followed by a roundup of roundups. And blogs, of course. Mike D'Angelo and more. I'll be updating this entry as I can throughout the fest, but not necessarily tagging updates as updates. Ach, you'll see. Click it:
