A brief history of Parker Posey’s (aka “The Queen of the Indies”) Sundance career in film postersSubUrbia, 1997 Sundance FestivalDirected by Richard Linklater and written by Eric Bogosian, SubUrbia is an extraordinary blend of the disparate visions of two celebrated observers of pop culture and disaffected youth… SubUrbia seduces you with a cinematic style that captures the dark heart of middle America.Frisk, 1996 Sundance Film FestivalFrisk is the much-anticipated adaptation of Dennis Cooper’s infamous novel about homosexuality, sadism, and insanity. Ironically, Dennis is also the name of the main character, whose lead we follow on this path between what is real and what we can only hope is surreal.Broken English, 2007 Sundance Film FestivalNora isn’t broken; she just acts that way. She is actually sexy, funny, and creative, and her only fault is being cursed with that modern affliction of wanting more out of life than what others want for her. She must suffer quietly her best friend’s “perfect marriage,” a job she has outgrown, and a mother who constantly reminds her of it all.Fay Grim, 2007 Sundance Film FestivalEight years have passed since the infamous Henry Fool fled the country, abandoning his wife, Fay Grim, and their son, Ned. Played to Hartley-esque perfection by Parker Posey, Fay is falling to pieces. Ned is being expelled from school, and Fay’s brother, Simon (James Urbaniak), the reviled garbageman/poet, is serving a 10-year sentence for aiding Henry’s escape. Spring Breakdown, 2009 Sundance Film FestivalAn outlandish, quick-witted romp that jubilantly leaves none immune to ridicule, Spring Breakdown chews up our geeky gals and spits them out as triumphant powerhouses—confident that being who they truly are is way cooler than fitting in.Grab, 2011 Sundance Film FestivalEach year residents of the Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico honor individual family members by throwing food and gifts from the rooftops of their homes to the community that gathers below. Billy Luther’s film follows three families as they prepare for this ancient tradition, which has taken many modern twists.Columbus, 2017 Sundance Film FestivalWhile his father is in a coma, Jin finds himself stuck in an unusual Midwestern city renowned for its modernist buildings. Though not fond of architecture, Jin strikes up a friendship with Casey, a bright girl who works at the city library (avoiding college and her future), and she shows him the local marvels.-All film posters courtesy of respective film titles- -- source link
