"Extra's" Jerry Penacoli caught up with actor Sean Penn at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival to talk about his new indie drama, "This Must Be the Place" - and about how he spent most of his money helping Haiti to recover from the devastating 2010 earthquake.
"I got to Haiti and found myself having spent all my money," Penn explained. "I had spent out, among other things, and I had to go back to work. The [J/P Haitian Relief] organization was up and running. We had a reasonable leadership in place that could take over for me while I was away."
"Extra's" Jerry Penacoli braved the snowy weather in Park City, Utah for its annual Sundance Film Festival to speak with its founder, Robert Redford, who said he wants to bring the "indie" feeling back to the event.
"[After 28 years] it hasn't been easy. The leveraging that started to take place around the festival sometimes overwhelmed who we were and the way we did things."
