Movies I'm Excited About: Cannes 2018
Ah, Cannes, that glorious bundle of contradictions! Selfies are banned but I've seen more stars/directors take them on the red carpet than anyone else. Netflix isn't coming because they were essentially dis-invited. As some smart wag noted it's like me saying that I've decided not to date Robin Wright. She wasn't asking. Lars von Trier IS coming back with serial-killer flick THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT but his triumphant return to the Croisette was pre-ordained the day after Cannes made him persona non grata in 2011. Even if it can be confusing Cannes has a way of being sexy and scandalous. But the reason that it remains a festival of import is the films selected In and Out of Competition. Here's just a few of the films that pique my interest and why. As always, full disclosure: I work with Amazon Studios and they have a film In Competition, Cold War, included below. - by Keith Simanton
