Venice kicks off tomorrow, however, I’m hearing things that the big festivals such as Cannes, Venice, Berlin and Toronto etc are being called the falling stars of the festival circuit and that the whole star-studdied red carpet routine is getting rather dull and boring. This is an interesting point, but not one that I fully agree with – based on my experience of last years Cannes. Although I didnt see many of the in-competition films as I was doing my research around the film market...
Me at Cannes after all nighter at VIP, Paris Hilton's Cannes club. Of course Paris was there, dressed in glitters and Champaign flute in hand. I wonder what it's like to be a professional party girl. After 2 weeks of Cannes I was ready to sleep for two more. lol!:-P
Scott Hillier's Cannes Update
Ahh.. Cannes.. The mammoth, the Big-Daddy, the Fois Gras of all film festivals. The must-be-there, must-drink-bucketloads of Rosé, must show my power and strength (and the new shoes - although the blistering will be painful!) event of the year for everyone involved in European cinema. OR IS IT?
So Sundance made love with Raindance, deliciously long-legged beauties sauntered the Croisette in the oh-so- slinkiest of dental floss inspired micro skirts. ...

Cannes may be a festival for film, but it's also a social festival: many people come to Cannes solely for the parties.
"I've never been to a film at the festival," says Cannes veteran, who comes to the festival every year to attend some of the best parties and most exclusive clubs in the world.
While most of these parties are expensive and very exclusive, there are some, especially during the day, that are more opened to the general public--at least to ...

In a far right corner of the Marche, Spa Des Stars is providing clients with spa treatments, such as pedicures and massages. Giving the stressed, sleep-deprived professionals a chance of relaxation and a luxury of a few quite m...

So it seems that this year, destiny wanted to keep us (and your films) from getting to Cannes. Eyjafjallajokull, Iceland's unpronounceable volcano and its resulting  ash cloud, inclement weather, train strikes and general mayhem all round have conspired to make life difficult but nothing stops ÉCU from getting to Cannes! So it is with pleasure that I am able to announce that the European Independent Film Festival - Europe's foremost festival for independent filmmakers -will be at Cannes...
 by Marla Lewin We arrived in Cannes and went right to the Carlton hotel and I said hello to Brian Grazer in the lobby, who said he was excited to be in Cannes for the opening night premiere of his film Robin Hood! We had flown in on the same plane as Donna Langley co-chairman of Universal. We were all relieved when the airline held our connecting flight to Nice because our Los Angeles flight had been late. We had heard rumors in the airport that officials were considering closing airports...
