    It's a buyer's market at Sundance, and several titles have been picked up.

    The big news is that the North American and Latin American rights for Lone Scherfig's British coming-of-age drama "An Education" - one of two movies at Sundance featuring breakout star Carey Mulligan - were picked up for almost $3 million by Sony Pictures Classics.

    Also, Lionsgate spent a reported $3 million to pick up "The Winning Season," James C. Strouse's comedy about a hapless coach (Sam Rockwell) of a high school girls' basketball team (whose members include Emma Roberts, Shareeka Epps and Emily Rios).

    Meanwhile, IFC picked up the domestic rights to the Norwegian horror film "Dead Snow" - a k a the zombie Nazi movie.
