OH MY!!!! MY FAVORITE MOVIE - “I ORIGINS”

and finally designed poster (no cheatingggggg)

At Sundance, the Utah film festival known for launching the careers of unknown filmmakers like Quentin Tarantino, it’s corporations that are stealing the show this year.

Among the hot tickets were a Netflix Inc. documentary about pop star Taylor Swift and a four-part Hulu series about Hillary Clinton. Many other hotly anticipated pictures were snapped up by streaming services before they were submitted to Sundance or just before the festival started. Walt Disney Co.’s Searchlight Pictures emerged as winner of a reported bidding war for “The Night House,” a horror film.

That streaming services are cornering the indie film and documentary markets is a sign of the times. Viewers are continuing to migrate away from linear TV and theaters, opting instead to enjoy new shows and movies at the time of their choosing and in the privacy of their homes.

The frenzy has given documentaries newfound cachet.

“Documentaries have never really had distribution before -- you’d have to go to a specialty movie theater,” said Bryn Mooser, chief executive officer of the production company XTR and co-producer of “Mucho Mucho Amor,” a film bought by Netflix. “Now when you turn on Netflix or Hulu, a documentary is literally on the tile next to ‘Avengers.’”
