Sundance: Michelle Satter Brings Tears To Festival’s Gala With Words Of Family & Loss; Cynthia Erivo & James Mangold Accept Visionary & Trailblazer Awards
The big gala dinner for the Sundance Film Festival tonight honored two recent Oscar nominees & one of the festival's most beloved leaders
Reading a letter from her father, Sundance board member Amy Redford teed off a series of honorary speeches tonight for Satter, which also included warm praise from Glenn Close and filmmaker Marielle Heller. Towards the end of her poignant remarks, and noting the loss of her home but the ongoing “village” of family, friends and artists, Satter thanked her husband and other son (and CAA agent) Franklin Lott for their support and love of independent film. Mangold landed three Oscar noms in a career count of five for his Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown in Best Director, Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay (shared with Jay Cocks).
