Report on Resource for Reading and Viewing
Steven Soderbergh has a bigger status and demand in the film industry than I had known. Sex, Lies and Videotape was the first film he wrote and directed in 1989. He received the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival for his hard work both writing and directing Sex, Lies and Videotape. He is credited with launching the independent film boom of the 1990s(infoplease). Soderbergh never attended college and had a number of random jobs that gave him zero sense of success. Filming Sex, Lies and Videotape “catapulted him to fame and renewed hopes for the future of independent films in Hollywood”(infoplease). Soderbergh knows the thrill of success and the agony of defeat. After his Grammy Award, he found himself in a slump of great disappointment. Getting back on track, Soderbergh directed Out of Sight with George Clooney and wrote a few screen plays such as Nightwatch with Ewan McGregor. Soderbergh then produced Pleasantville starring Reese Witherspoon and Tobey Maguire he received two Oscar nominations for his involvement in Erin Brockovich and Traffic. Without much surprise, Soderbergh won the Oscar for Traffic, which then lead him to direct the triology Ocean’s Eleven. One fact I learned about Steven Soderbergh is that he works as his own cinematographer, instead of listing his name in the credits, he uses the code name Peter Andrews.

“In its twenty-year history, Sundance Film Festival has helped usher a new and unconventional group of writers and directorys to the forefront of film making, and has acted as a catalyst for expanding the public’s appetite for films that are challenging both in format and subject matter”(De Silva). Little did I know, Robert Redford is the sole man behind the Sundance Film Festival. I had no clue that he started this widely known and well-respected event held annually in Park City Utah. The festival has been in existence since 1978 and moved to Park City in 1981. Thousands of people descend upon Park City each year to learn, grow and view countless films by the future Hollywood stars. Countless number of film actors, directors and producers catapult onto the Hollywood scene at the annual festival. Steven Soderburgh for example premeired his first film Sex, Lies and Videotape at the festival. Now days the film festival has grown from retrospective films and seminars to include a wide variety of films such as international, contemporary and independent. The festival currently hosts 125 films each year that are shown in their entirety, approximately 90 minutes in length. Many of the films shown are documentary in style and have included films such as Jennifer Aniston’s The Good Girl. “In its twenty-year history, Sundance Film Festival has helped usher a new and unconventional group of writers and directors to the forefront of film making, and has acted as a catalyst for expanding the public’s appetite for films that are challenging both in format and subject matter”(De Silva)
