My favorite part of the [Sundance Film] festival is the 2nd half of it, which I stayed for. Everybody leaves and you can just go around and see movies and you know, the only people remaining are the ones that are there for the films so it's a lot of fun.

Mostly, the film is beautiful, and that's the reason to go see it. I saw it last night for the fifth time. I was not planning on sitting through the movie. And it just started, and I didn't want to go get up. I enjoyed the movie again so much. I'm so familiar with it-I know every cut that's coming up, I know what's about to happen. Every time I watch it, I love it more and more. It's beautiful, beautiful.
