Amid an unexpected feeding frenzy at the Sundance Film Festival, indie mogul Harvey Weinstein continued to gobble up a smorgasbord of films. In the wake of deals for "Grace Is Gone" and a co-buy with Lionsgate of "Teeth," the Weinstein Co., partnering with First Look Studios, bought worldwide rights to the Justin Theroux-directed romantic comedy "Dedication" for $4 million. Then, partnering with Fox Searchlight, it took world rights on the Mexican heart-tugger "La Misma Luna" for $5 million-$6 million.
