This year’s Sundance Film Festival drew to a close at the weekend and the winners have been announced (see below for a full list) and in the vein of our Oscar Poll I thought I’d combine the list with a poll to find out which previous Sundance winners are your favourites. I’ve gone through the award winners from the previous 15 years and picked one fairly well known title from each year as there are so many awards to choose from and just going by Grand Jury Prize: Dramatic gave some odd results (plus it wasn’t awarded once or twice).
As ever let us know your Sundance-related thoughts in the comments section.
