Netflix and Amazon dropped millions on these Sundance movies everyone will be talking about
Sundance Institute
Following its $10 million buy of current Oscar best picture nominee "Manchester by the Sea" last year, Amazon has come back to Park City with a bigger wallet. The company bought the comedy "The Big Sick" for $12 million, the biggest buy of this year's fest. Meanwhile, Netflix has taken some of the most coveted documentaries at the fest, like "Chasing Coral" and "Icarus."
Though a few of the traditional distributors have also grabbed some big fish from the fest, filmmakers are clearly gravitating to Netflix and Amazon.
Here's a breakdown of all the Sundance movies Netflix and Amazon bought that will be showing on their services later this year (plus a few of the standout buys from other distributors):
