Sundance 2021: Hits, Misses, and Hidden Gems

February 4, 2021 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno looks back at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival…

After six days and over 70 features, Sundance 2021 is in the books. While the festival went virtual for the first time, it still provided some massive movie moments to kick off the year. From future Academy Awards contenders to cult classics in the making, there’s no denying that this year’s Sundance is quite memorable. Nicolas Cage debuted a new film, several filmmakers made their debut, and CODA made festival history with its insane $25 million deal with Apple.

Join our host EJ Moreno as he breaks down what he thought were the biggest hits, the duds, and the must-see hidden gems from the 2021 Sundance Film Festival.
