The Sundance Institute has added three more films for out-of-competition world premieres at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. The late additions are:

* Flypaper, directed by Rob Minkoff from a script by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore. The drama covers what happens when two gangs try to rob the same bank at the same time. Patrick Dempsey, Ashley Judd, Mekhi Phifer, Jeffrey Tambor, Tim Blake Nelson and Pruitt Taylor Vince star.

* The Future, written and directed by Miranda July. A couple decides to adopt a stray cat, and it alters their perspective on life and literally alters the course of time and space. That’s some cat. Hamish Linklater, Miranda July, David Warshofsky, Isabella Acres and Joe Putterlik star in a film that will screen in competition at the Berlin International Film Festival.

*Magic Trip. Directed by Alison Ellwood and Alex Gibney, this documentary uses footage, audio recordings and photographs taken during the LSD-fueled cross country road trip that One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest author Ken Kesey and his band of Merry Pranksters took, en route to the World’s Fair in New York.
