MORE CANNES SPECULATION
Over the weekend I checked in on Jordan Ruimy /World of Reel's evolving list of possible films that will be invited to the Cannes Film Festival in less than two weeks (April 11th). As always, I look to Cannes for the emergence of films that could World Premiere there in May and then emerge at Telluride as North American premieres.
Looking at Ruimy's list, it seems like there is a lot of agreement with films that I included from Screen Daily's Cannes list last week. Here are the films from Ruimy's post that I feel like have the most likely chance of playing TFF:
Megalopolis-Dir: Frances Ford Coppola (although there's a good deal of buzz that it may NOT appear at Cannes after all. It seems that Coppola wants a distribution deal in place before the film screens anywhere and if that doesn't happen, the focus for its first public screening might switch to a fall festival scenario-stay tuned).
Anora- Dir: Sean Baker
Bird- Dir: Andrea Arnold
Emilia Perez- Dir: Jacques Audiard
Hard Truths- Dir: Mike Leigh
Parthenope- Dir: Paolo Sorrentino
The End- Dir: Joshua Oppenheimer
The Apprentice- Dir: Ali Abbasi
In the Hands of Dante- Dir: Julian Schnabel
Rumors- Dir: Guy Maddin
ORLANDO HAS A DATE
Janus Films has announced a release date for physical media sales of Paul B. Preciado's Orlando: My Political Biography. Blu-Ray and DVD sales of the documentary will begin on June 25th.
Here's the IMDb description of the film:
"Academic virtuoso turned filmmaker Paul B. Preciado's Berlin Film Festival award-winning doc tells his and others' stories of transition through unique reenactments and visual interpretations of Virginia Woolf's Orlando: A Biography."
