My signt-unseen selection by preference:
RépondreSupprimerParis je t'aime; Palfi's Taxidermia (director of Hukkle in 2002!); Bellocchio's Il Registra di Matrimoni; Linklater's A Scanner Darkly;
And to discover:
The Unforgiven; Cronica de Una Fuga; 977; Hamaca Paraguaya; Gwai Wik; Luxury Car; Serambi; Bled Number One;
The omnibus Paris je t'aime met a last minute trouble before the projection in Cannes. The 2 producers Emmanuel Benbihy (creator of the project) and Claudie Ossard (late co-producer) had a law suit clash over the final cut. Claudie Ossard cut out 2 segments (Christoffer Boe's and Raphaël Nadjari's) from the original 20 that were meant to represent each 1 of the 20 district of Paris inner city.
RépondreSupprimerI was looking forward to these 2 segments in particular because I appreciate the films of these 2 young filmmakers.
The official release is due on June 21st 2006, hopefully with a new cut.
