Cannes Roundups: The Immigrant/New Views: The Congress/NYT with Sarah Polley, Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach/"August" Trailer

Good Monday morning everyone!

CANNES ROUNDUPS: THE IMMIGRANT



I continue to link Cannes previews from a variety of sites about films that I thiunk (at least pre-Cannes) have a decent shot to play at TFF #340.  This morning a look at James Gray's "The Immigrant" starring Marion Cotillard, Jeremy Renner and Joaquin Phoenix.  Here are previews from Movie City News and HitFix:

NEW VIEWS OF "THE CONGRESS"



Ari Folman's follow-up to "Waltz with Bashir" has been a long time coming but will finally premiere at Cannes in competition.  Rope of Silicon has a couple of new stills from the film in this post:
