INDIEWIRE HANDICAPS THE PALME CONTENDERS
Eric Kohn at Indiewire has been updating their estimation of which films have the best shot at winning the Palme d'Or this weekend in France.
The most recent update has the top three as:
1) Happy as Lazzaro
2) Shoplifters
3) Cold War
The complete updated post is here.
As of my post this morning, however, Kohn has not yet included Burning and the critical response suggests that it could easily move into Kohn's top three with his next update.
That's your update for this Thursday...more on Monday (with probable Cannes updates over the weekend).
