3-D film about U2 is 1 big hit at Sundance fest

PARK CITY — In the galaxy of stars that is the Sundance Film Festival, could there be any bigger than the supergroup U2?

Despite the international fame, fortune and name recognition, U2, the band, premiered “U23D,” the film, Saturday night at an independent film festival.

And the scene was as frantic as at any big premiere.

Major news outlets lined the red carpet. Fans screamed inside the auditorium, but others were almost as enthusiastic outside waiting for the midnight screening. Rumors had tickets being scalped for more than $1,000.

And while anything branded with the U2 label may not seem inherently independent, as the Sundance name generally implies, the 90-minute concert film experience is precisely that.

Financed by the group that owns the Baltimore Ravens and made without at distributor, “U23D” promises to raise the bar for both concert films and the 3-D experience, according to the brain trust behind the film, which opens in wide release Jan. 23. It will be screened in both IMAX and digital cinema, giving fans what they hope is an immersive concert experience.

“This film is a love song to Latin America,” said lead singer Bono from the red carpet. “We love playing for the people there. I really hope it communicates.” continuar
