Greetings from Park City!

Date:

Welcome folks to IONCINEMA.com’s annual coverage (only our 2nd edition) of the Sundance film festival – this year my luggage includes an extra scarf and NYC-based journalist Jameson Kowalczyk who’ll help assist in covering all the activity (reviews, interviews, premiere screenings, panels, photo & video essays) in Park City, Utah. 

We both flew in on Thursday and got off to a rocking start yesterday as we blitzed a little everywhere in town – from the Racquet Club theatre to the Egyptian and Main street. While we brave the crisp weather and survive rocky schedules – hopefully we can keep afloat and update the site with regular updates. Enjoy!


Kowalczyk looking forward to We Are the Strange – M dot Strange


Lavallee looking forward to Snow Angels (David Gordon Green)
