If you’re hankering for a peek at the next big box office successes, look no further than the list below! Stay ahead of the curve, impress your friends and relatives and generally act all smug at knowing the next big hits based on the Sundance Film Festival prizewinners this year.

This year’s festival came to a close yesterday, with the judges announcing their favourites from the cinematic offering. There were some surprises from the judges’ picks, including Mark Ruffalo’s first film, Sympathy for Delicious, grabbing a special jury prize after being generally panned by critics. The big winner of the day seemed to be Winter’s Bone, a dark thriller by Debra Granik, scooping Grand Jury Prize for dramatic competition and the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award.
