COUNTDOWN TO CANNES CONTINUES
The 67th Cannes Film Festival is now less than a week away and the anticipation is building. As I have for the past couple of years, I'll be following the critical reaction to the films that play which particular focus on the films in the Palme d'Or competition as well as the Un Certain Regard Program and the Director's Fortnight category from which most Cannes/Telluride crossover films emerge.
As we get closer I am continuing to link to the summaries of Palme competitors by Jake Howell and being featured in Movie City News. Howell has added three more films since my last post: David Cronenberg's "Maps to the Stars", Nuri Bilge Ceylan's "Winter Sleep" and Naomi Kawase's "Still the Water". Check the capsules at MCN here:
