![]() ![]() ![]() The industry mentality is standard: just about every interaction at Sundance amounts to some sort of power play. ![]() With more than 120 films unspooling in a half-dozen theaters in a week and a half, it can be hard to make yourself heard. But in a way, you can't completely blame the guy for wanting to scare up some cheap publicity for his low-budget picture. ![]() The party line on Gallo: riveting actor, talented filmmaker, miserable human being. During a Q&A, he referred to director Gus Van Sant as "a twisted queen from Portland." God only knows what he did in private. He nearly perished, supposedly, while driving himself to the wintry Park City across patches of black ice. Stories about Gallo-the bizarre-looking indie actor from Palookaville and The Funeral-became legend among the "creepy" players at Sundance. P ARK CITY, UTAH: Can't say I disagree with the above comment, made by actor/writer/ĭirector Vincent Gallo after a screening of his outrageously entertaining Buffalo '66, a sort of comedic version of Taxi Driver in which the star's wimpy Travis Bickle brings a piece of jail bait (Christina Ricci) home to Mom and Dad, passing her off as his wife before heading out to kill the former Buffalo Bills field-goal kicker who ruined his big bet. Sundance was an endurance test-but worth it Nice Directors Finish Last: Director/star Vincent Gallo and Christina Ricci in 'Buffalo 66.' ![]()
