Sundance Day Five

Interiors: as the first weekend of the fest closes, thoughts on Sebastián Silva’s Tyrel, Ethan Hawke’s Blaze, Gustav Möller’s The Guilty, and Sandi Tan’s Shirkers

As the first weekend of Sundance comes to an end, FC Editor-in-Chief Nicolas Rapold and Eric Hynes, FC contributor and Curator of Film at Museum of the Moving Image, discuss the white privilege and bacchanalia of Sebastián Silva’s disorienting Tyrel, Ethan Hawke’s biopic of heavy-drinking country singer/songwriter Blaze Foley, Gustav Möller’s gimmicky debut thriller The Guilty, and the joyousness and charm of Sandi Tan’s first-person Singapore-set documentary Shirkers.
