YouTube and Sundance, Starts Today!
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (OS X)" @ 07:00 AM
"While perhaps not the truest representation of the movie industry, the Sundance Film Festival nevertheless occupies a prominent place in viewers' minds as the festival for seeing and hearing about independent pictures. Now, Sundance is pairing up with YouTube to show some of this year's award-winning films to the public."
Initially only for those in the U.S., and only for a short time as it starts today and ends next Friday, January 31st. The movies will be priced at $4.00 USD for a 48-hour viewing period, and will be five movies from the 2009 and 2010 festivals. Which ones? Glad you asked! They are The Cove, One Too Many Mornings, Homewrecker, Children of Invention and Bass Ackwards. It will be interesting to see how well this works, what are your thoughts?
