1â??a success at Sundance and a triumph at Cannes, sex, lies made Soderbergh, at 26, the youngest director to ever win the Palme dâ??Or.
2â??wrote screenplay in 8 days in motels as he drove west cross-country, and backed by Columbia/RCA Home Video, completed the $1.2 million movie a year later; earned an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay.
3â??the film forever changed the public reception of indies and the Sundance Film Festival, where it premiered.
4â??What is (American Independent) Cinema? like Antonioniâ??s Blow-Up (1966), beneath the adultery intrigue the film poses serious questions about the potency of the video camera as an alternative to real and direct experience.
