Lionsgate’s Cannes Film Festival Teaser poster for Oliver Stone’s W. gives you a very good idea of what you can expect from the upcoming George W. Bush biopic. This won’t be a dramatic retelling of W’s life! But can Human beings and fish really coexist peacefully?

Official Plot Synopsis: Whether you love him or hate him, [...]

Charlie Kaufman’s directorial debut Synecdoche, New York just premiered at the Cannes Film Festival (read about the reaction here). In the last couple weeks, we’ve brought you production photos and video clips, and now IonCinema brings us the movie poster. I love the imagery of Hoffman overlooking the endless tables of papers. It gives you [...]

“Meh, believe it.”
Let’s go to the tape from Cannes! Shortly after a giggly French interviewer hands him a video camera and requests to “directed,” Quentin Tarantino is asked what his next film will be. Will it be Kill Bill 3? Kill Bill 4 (those silly Frenchies!) No, he says, it will be Inglorious Bastards…coming to [...]

“Think.”

Charlie Kaufman’s Synecdoche, New York aka If You Can’t Pronounce My Title, You’re an Effin’ Plebe!!! showed at Cannes and the reviews are hitting the Web like steaming intellectual veg patties. We’ll include the plot synopsis at the bottom, but for now just imagine it’s about a former disgruntled employee (Philip Seymour Hoffman) of [...]

Today, director Steven Soderbergh’s four hour subtitled Che Guevera biopic, Che (presented as two films entitled The Argentine and Guerilla) premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. Online, critical reception is already momentously loud and divided, in a “Here we go…” way. And as you might expect, the film(s)’s questionable commercial prospects and controversial depiction of [...]

Clint Eastwood unveiled his latest movie at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this week. The Exchange (which is being released under it’s former title Changeling in the U.S.) stars Angelina Jolie as a mother whose young son suddenly vanishes. Set in 1928 Los Angeles and based on one of the most notorious crimes in LA [...]

MTV has a batch of new movie posters from Cannes. The three most interesting can be seen above:

Werner Herzog’s (Grizzly Man) remake of Bad Lieutenant starring Nicolas Cage.
Frank Darabont’s (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) Law Abiding Citizen which stars Gerard Butler as an assistant D.A. is targeted by a victim of the legal system [...]

Jack Black and 40 Kung Fu Pandas kicked off the Cannes Film Festival yesterday, and here’s some photos:

And the last photo we bring you from Festival De Cannes, is our first official look at Woody Allen’s next film Vicky Cristina Barcelona about two young American women, Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson), who come to Barcelona for a summer holiday. Vicky is sensible and engaged to be married; Cristina is emotionally [...]

Another bunch of photos direct from the Cannes Film Festival, which begins this week.

With the Festival de Cannes kicking off later this week, a bunch of new production photos have surfaced. First up is Steven Soderbergh’s Che, a pair of films (The Argentine and Guerrilla) starring Benicio Del Toro as Argentine revolutionary Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara de la Serna.

At last year’s Cannes My Blueberry Nights, the first English film from 2046’s Kar Wai Wong, drew a memorably tepid critical response, with songstress Norah Jones’s performance taking lots of the heat and sleet. Based on what I’ve heard from friends who have seen it, it has the potential to become the new Across the [...]

I’m a sucker for long tracking shots. Orsen Wells, Alfred Hitchcock, Martin Scrosese, Brian DePalma, Paul Thomas Anderson, and most recently Alfanso Cuaron had a few all-in-one tracking shots in last year’s Children of Men. One of the big buzz talking points at the Toronto Film Festival was a five minute sequence from Joe Wright’s [...]
