LOS ANGELES — Parker Posey, author Russell Banks and filmmakers Karyn Kusama and Morgan Spurlock are among the jurors for this month’s Sundance Film Festival.
Actress Posey, whose films include past Sundance entries “The House of Yes” and “Broken English,” will be one of five jurors judging the U.S. dramatic competition.
Joining her are Banks, producer Jason Kliot, cinematographer Robert Yeoman and director Kusama, whose “Girlfight” shared the top prize at Sundance in 2000.
Spurlock, who directed the Sundance hit “Super Size Me,” is on the U.S. documentary jury, along with filmmakers Greg Barker, Dayna Goldfine and Ondi Timoner and entertainment journalist Nancy Miller.
The festival for independent film runs Jan. 21-31 in Park City, Utah.
