From the clear blue waves from the Mediterranean washing up on the
shore, to a new film by Jackie Chan, and nearly non-stop fireworks every

This is an inferno of media, fans, celebrities and press. Churches stay

I saw "Lawless" last night at La Licorne theatre in Cannes La Boca. Directed by John Hillcoat, "Lawless" is an official selection film in the Cannes Film Festival. While the film was captivating and kept you turning your head in fear, and disgust, throughout, it left you feeling little for it and thinking nothing of it. Lawless is based on the Bondurant brothers, who lived in Franklin Country, Virginia during the Depression. The Bondurant...

Xan Brooks from The Guardian says, "Veteran director Yousry Nasrallah makes a melodrama out of a crisis in After The Battle, a film hewn from the headlines of the Egyptian revolution that crash-lands in the Cannes competition on the basis of its urgent topicality, a heart-on-sleeve narrative, and not a whole lot else. Try as I might, I can't see it troubling the judges."A producer from the Short Film Corner at the 65th Cannes Film Festival said that it was a g...

A long line of fans were crowded in front of Hotel Martinez on Wednesday. When asked who they're waiting for, they say "anybody". It is known that many stars make this hotel their home during the Cannes Film Festival, as the town's population doubles and it is turned into an international metropolis. Fans who spot a crowd will blindly join, dying to see a glimpse of "anybody".
While leaving the Palais des Festivals this evening with my friend Clay Thomas, we ran into Jared Gilman, 13, the young up-and-coming actor of "Moonrise Kingdom". He expressed his love of acting and his gratitude to Wes Anderson for his acting advice. Anderson advised Gilman and his co-star Kara Hayward to write letters like they do in the movie. When asked what his favorite films are, Gilman expressed th
