18.-23. Sundance's six biggest legal brawls
Kurt & Courtney, Nick Broomfield's documentary about the death of Kurt Cobain, got pulled from the 1998 festival after Love threatened to sue. That's just one of many suits that have swirled around Sundance: A 2004 filing for $10 million by Napoleon Dynamite's producers over the contracts signed at Sundance with Fox Searchlight; a suit over Michael Keaton's failure to appear at the 2008 Sundance screening of The Merry Gentleman; no fewer than four lawsuits over 2009's Grand Jury Prize-winning drama Precious, between The Weinstein Co. and Lionsgate over disputed North American rights; a defamation suit filed by real estate mogul David Siegel just before the 2012 festival screening of The Queen of Versailles, a documentary about his life that filmmakers were billing as a "rags-to-riches-to-rags story"; and an $11 million suit filed in 2012 by a branding agency called Hype Creative Agency over an event that never took place at Redford's Park City restaurant, Zoom.
24. A camel walks Main Street (2013)
To promote his movie Egypt Through the Glass Shop (which wasn't even screening at Sundance), filmmaker Next Anyextee takes a camel ride through Park City. Police cite him for obstructing traffic.
25.-29. Biggest Sundance Bombs:
Hamlet 2 (2008)
BOUGHT FOR $10 million
BOX OFFICE $4.8 million
Happy, Texas (1999)
BOUGHT FOR $2.5 million to $10 million (depending on whom you believe)
BOX OFFICE $2 million
Girlfight (2000)
BOUGHT FOR $4 million
BOX OFFICE $1.5 million
Introducing the Dwights (2007)
BOUGHT FOR $4 million
Grace Is Gone (2007)
BOUGHT FOR $4 million
30. CAA's XXX party (2013)
At Sundance, unsimulated sexual conduct is sometimes permitted on the screen (see No. 14) but offscreen, even the simulated sort is frowned upon (it is, after all, Utah). So when CAA threw a party with pole-shimmying Vegas burlesque dancers, some of them wearing strap-on penises, it did not go over well. Nicole Kidman was so put off, she promptly left. "I think I prefer it out here," she was heard saying.

DAVANGERE: Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa, at the inauguration of the Vijaya Sankalpa Samavesha of the Bharatiya Janata Party here on Tuesday told his party workers to "learn a lesson from the Congress that had not only misruled the State but had been disloyal to the people. Let us be with the people till the last day of our regime by addressing their problems".
"Even I did not expect such a fabulous victory in the corporation elections," he said.
He added that it was a tremendous performance of the Bharatiya Janata Party which now had 112 councillors in the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike. He said that he had informed top leaders of the party, including L.K. Advani, who commanded the State BJP, of the victory.
He also said that he would be going to Delhi and would meet the veteran party leader and former Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee and inform him of the victory.
Mr. Yeddyurappa called upon the workers to work hard and win all the imminent gram panchayats in the State. He exuded confidence that the BJP would steadily increase its power in the State and in the next Parliamentary elections, it would win all the seats in the State helping the party at the Centre to form the government. Senior leader H.N. Ananth Kumar said that all was not well with the UPA Government and that the Government at the Center would not last long.
