Ben Affleck Hits Sundance As An Unemployed Man Moving In With His Parents
PARK CITY, Utah — The recession has hit Ben Affleck. He’s out of work, saying goodbye to his beloved Porsche, losing his home, stuck moving back in with his parents. Affleck stars in “The Company Men,” a Sundance Film Festival premiere in which he plays a man who loses all the material wealth he has accumulated after his high-paying job as a sales executive is eliminated in a round of cutbacks at his firm. His character learns like many unemployed Americans that along with the stuff, he has lost a big part of his identity when his job goes away. “It’s sort of an existential crisis, and that’s almost as bad as sort of, `All right, well where’s my money going to come from–’” Affleck said. “This sort of shame and difficulty in saying, `Well, what am I– Well, I’m not really this. I can’t really say I’m X if I’m not making money at it.’” “The Company Men” is kind of the flipside of George Clooney and Jason Reitman’s recession tale “Up in the Air,” which includes segments of real unemployed workers reflecting on their situation. In that film, Clooney plays the hitman, the guy who goes around firing people at downsizing companies. “The Company Men” centers on the people losing their jobs. “I tell people who ask me about it that if you were interested in those people that Jason Reitman interviewed and put into the film who really lost their jobs, that this movie begins as they walk out of that room. This movie is really about what happened to those people,” said John Wells, the man behind “ER” and “The West Wing,” who makes his feature-film writing and directing debut on “The Company Men.” The film draws its inspiration from Wells’ own family.

Johnny Weir Reality Show: ‘Be Good Johnny Weir’ Airs On Sundance (VIDEO)
SPOKANE, Wash. — Those who can’t get enough of Johnny Weir and his antics, don’t worry. He’s not going to leave you hanging until the Vancouver Olympics. (SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO) Weir’s reality show, “Be Good Johnny Weir” premieres Monday night on the Sundance Channel. The eight-part series, which chronicles the ups and downs of an elite athlete, is a follow-up to this summer’s “Pop Star on Ice” documentary. “It’s about me,” Weir said, a touch incredulous, when asked why people should watch it. “No, it’s a real athlete show. It’s not a fluff piece, nothing is pre-scripted.
