Which Glee Cast Members Are in Danger of Being Replaced?

This week Glee creator Ryan Murphy announced that he will be kicking several of his New Directions stars to the curb in 2012 because “there is nothing more depressing than a high schooler with a bald spot.” Well, except for a middle-aged white-rapping teacher who chooses to relive his glory days by dancing suggestively in front of a packed high school auditorium…but I digress.

REVIEW: True Love (and Good Filmmaking) Goes Awry in All Good Things

All Good Things , Andrew Jarecki’s feature follow-up to his dark family scrapbook Capturing the Friedmans , has got a whopper story, two magnetic leads, and a killer case of the directorial bends.

The full programs for the Premieres, Spotlight, Midnight and the remaining Sundance sections are after the jump.
