In keeping with tradition, Sundance’s judges did give out a handful of Special Jury Prizes. Tatiana Maslany was honored for her “breakout performance” as a starry-eyed teenager in “Grown Up Movie Star,” while “Enemies of the People” (world cinema documentary), “GASLAND” (U.S. documentary) and “Sympathy for Delicious” (U.S. dramatic) received similar honors

    I had a bunch made up last year and I gave them all away.

    At Prairie Fest last year, I gave a t-shirt to anyone who donated to Texas OGAP no matter how small the donation. I may have more made and do that again.
