Sundance is forgoing its traditional opening day press conference where Redford, the festival's ever-sunny face, has presided since the 1980s. Still, opening day won't lack for star power. “Crip Camp,” directed by Jim LeBrecht and Nicole Newnham, begins with the story of a ramshackle summer camp for disabled teenagers in New York's Catskills. In his last Sundance festival as director, Cooper said he was thrilled to line up a good opening day slate of premieres.
