Producers Host Sundance Screenings
The Resorts West House of Luxury will host screenings for several high-profile
Sundance film screenings and receptions:
January 20:
o 4:00 – 7:00 p.m.: Linsanity
A documentary film chronicling Jeremy Lin's improbable rise from
substitute player to stardom last season. The movie was directed by Evan
Leong, an Asian director/producer whose works include Finishing the Game:

o 7:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.: He's Way More Famous Than You
A film starring Ben Stiller & Jesse Eisenberg and directed by Michael

boyfriend, her agent and her career in one fell swoop, she finally
realizes that something in her life has got to change... she has to become
way more famous! Armed with a stolen script and two pitchers of sangria,
Halley enlists the help of her brother Ryan and his boyfriend to make her
own movie, starring herself (of course) as herself, and any A-list
celebrity she can land along the way. From seducing the Karate Kid to
kidnapping Hollywood's biggest name in comedy, Halley will stop at nothing
to get her movie made even if it means hurting the only people who truly
care about her.
January 21:
o 10 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.: Running From Crazy
Hailed as one of the most distinguished families in American literature,
the Hemingways have always exposed both their bright brilliance and their

announces that they are going to build a house there. Starring Nick
Robinson, Gabriel Basso, Moises Arias, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally,
Alison Brie, and Mary Lynn Rajskub. Directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts.
o 7:00 – 10:00 p.m.: The Crash Reel
This eye-popping, yet intimate story of U.S. champion snowboarder Kevin

as well as the high stakes, of participating in extreme-action sports.
Training to compete against longtime rival Shaun White at the 2010 Winter
Olympics, Kevin suffered severe traumatic brain injury. The Crash Reel is
director/producer Lucy Walker's fifth film at the Sundance Film
Festival. Devil's Playground screened in 2002, Waste Land won the World
