One of the most prestigious and glamorous events is currently underway and this year proves to be a very nostalgic experience, especially for filmmakers on this side of the pond. This is the first time ever that so many American directors are being feted at this year’s Cannes Film Festival which is encouraging news for the distribution arm of the industry.
Wes Anderson’s whimsical wonder, Moonrise Kingdom will be the first to be screened and over the course of 11 days, a mirage of equally engrossing films will be celebrated.
There is going to be a lot of star power descending on the red carpet as well, from Brad Pitt to Reese Witherspoon, the stars will be perfectly aligned and poised to mix business with undiluted pleasure.
