Almost the end of the road...

Last Cannes blog.

Interview with Sam Holst of short film Meathead.

Last two interviews up soon :D

Here come the Cannes reviews...

Written a slate of stuff later on in the festival (philosophy: view first, then write). As follows:

- World Premiere of 18 Days (Tamantashar Yom)

- Cinefondation (student film-maker short selection) winners

- Review of Hanezu no tsuki (in Competition)

- Review of Melancholia (in Competition)

and also a piece on how the Competition and Un Certain Regard categories are no longer distinct.

Read on bitches.

Cannes Day Three-Four

A big two-day stretch for Wednesday and Thursday. Lots of films and interviews seen/done, not much work achieved. That's what today (Friday) is for. But see the review of Where Do We Go Now? from Un Certain Regard as well... peace out!

Cannes Blog: Tuesday May 17th (Day Two)

So it continues... it's late so I'm not elaborating. Link here. Cheers yo ;D

Cannes Classics: Le voyage dans la lune

I had the chance to see the latest restoration of Georges Melies' A Trip to the Moon (1902), in the colour print thought lost for 90 years. Check out at Cut Print Review what I thought of it...

Cannes Classics: Le Sauvage (1975)

I was an invitee to the screening of Jean-Paul Rappeneau's Le Sauvage, which has been recently restored. Catherine Deneuve was there as well as Rappeneau and Costa-Gavras - I've seen a few of her films lately, she's so amazing. And beautifully gracious in real life! Of course, first published on Cut Print Review...

Festival de Cannes: Day One

SO. I'm doing a daily blog from the world's biggest film festival. It's amazing but crazy and overwhelming all at the same time. I'm hoping you'll get some sort of insight from it and see how it is from inside the Palais doors. Just follow the link to where it's published on Cut Print Review!
