2019 Sundance Film Festival Predictions: The Scorecard Before the Announcements

Later today, the Sundance Film Fest unveil their 2019 line-up. Taking a Thierry Fremaux Cannes approach, the fest will be annoucing their programming offerings in real time. For those who want to check out our prognosticates, you’ll find a simple checklist and of particular note, this upcoming fest should be especially sweet for a pair of 24 year-olds in Montana born Margaret Qualley and New Orleans born Kelvin Harrison Jr. Qualley who broke out in Park City with Novitiate and a supporting role in The Vanishing of Sidney Hall, could be there with five films in Rhys Ernst’s Adam, Benedict Andrews’ Against All Enemies, Rashid Johnson’s Native Son, Jonathan Helpert’s Io and the American premiere to Tim Sutton’s Donnybrook. Harrison Jr. (got his Park City start with The Birth of a Nation) and had an epic fest last year with Monster, Assassination Nation and Monsters and Men, could potentially shore up with Nabil Elderkin’s Gully, Trey Edward Shults’ Waves, Julius Onah’s Luce and Alistair Banks Griffin’s The Wolf Hour. Announcements are made at 1 PM – PT.
