Sundance Film Festival USA is designed to both entertain audiences and to highlight the ability of art, specifically film, to introduce new concepts, challenge ideals and spur debate. The Sundance Film Festival runs January 21-31, 2010. On January 28, eight filmmakers and their films will be dispatched from Park City to cities across America, for the first time providing audiences the opportunity to experience screenings direct from the festival in their home town art houses and to engage in live conversation with festival artists. An introduction video featuring Robert Redford and highlights from the festival will precede the screenings.
The Michigan Theater will host "Cyrus," which stars Marisa Tomei, John C. Reilly, Jonah Hill and Catherine Keener. “Cyrus” is the Duplass brothers’ first mainstream comedy made with well-known Hollywood stars. The film is described by Sundance as a domestic comedy about "a recently divorced guy who meets a new lady. Then he meets her son who is, well...interesting."
