The Frame @ Sundance: Day 1

John Horn and a couple of producers are at the Sundance Film Festival where they will provide a daily recap of which films are getting the most buzz; also today: the director of "Untouchable," a documentary about Harvey Weinstein that is premiering at the very festival where he once ruled the roost.

On today's show:

Today at Sundance

(Starts at :45)

John Horn talks with film critic Amy Nicholson about what movies she has seen and what she's looking forward to at the festival.

Harvey Weinstein's return to Sundance

(Starts at 8:00)

No, he's not at the festival. He's in New York, busy defending himself against charges of sexual abuse. But he is the subject of "Untouchable," a documentary by Ursula MacFarlane about the multiple allegations of sexual misbehavior that have been leveled against the producer. MacFarlane visits The Frame's temporary studio in Park City to chat with John about her film debuting at the very festival where Weinstein once dominated the scene.
