Elites TV had a group of film and partygoers covering all of Sundance at almost every event! This year’s celebrities included everyone from Paris Hilton to that guy from Back to the Future, from Robert Redford’s daughter to John Kerry’s daughter. The 2005 Sundance film festival will be going down in history as one of the biggest and best. After last years success of such films as Napoleon Dynamite and Open Water the distributor’s check books were out on the table and ready to sign a couple extra zero’s this year for films they think could be this years Nappy D.
