  1. Amazing line-up offering the new films by Lynch, Tsai, Weerasethakul, Straub-Huillet, Resnais, Jia Zhangke, Spike Lee, Robbe-grillet, Aronofsky, Frears, Verhoeven, De Palma, De Oliveira, Oshii, Kurosawa K., Aoyama! And I'm looking forward the critical response to these most especially.

    Also a lifetime achievement honorary award to David Lynch, one of my most favorite filmmaker alive.

  2. Next stage for new international releases will be Toronto (September 7 to 16).

    But I'm still waiting for the other suspects expected to be selected in Cannes back then:

    - Hana Yori Mo Naho (Kore-Eda/Japan) released in Japan in June
    - Goya's ghosts (Milos Forman/USA) completed
    - The Good German (Soderbergh/USA) completed
    - Nacido y criado (Pablo Trapero/Argentina) post-prod
    - Youth without youth (Francis Ford Coppola/USA) post-prod
    - Wu Qingyuan (Tian Zhuangzhuang/China) post-prod
    - Zapakh kamnya (Andrei Zviaguintsev/Russia) filming
    - The Man from London (Béla Tarr) pre-prod
    - Scream of the Ants (Makhmalbaf/Iran) unknown?

  3. I agree the line-up is very teasing and promising. Also I found it a bit more diverse, and there are much more Asian films (than for instance at the Cannes festival's selection this year!).

  4. Hi Ouyang Feng, nice to see you, how are you doing?
    When will be announced the line up for the 3 continents Festival? This complete retrospective of Satyajit Ray films is really tempting me to make the trip over to Nantes this year.

    btw, I just noticed Kore-eda's Hana will make Toronto.

  5. I'm fine, quite busy too. Planning to present & show some chinese films and working on other activities (related to cinema)...
    Also I'm remaking a site on just chinese cinema at the moment.
    Yes, they announced the retrospective last year. I can't say much for the festival of the 3 continents, but .... I guess this year I'm a bit more involved to it too.. :D

  6. Cool. Are you going to run a Ciné-Club? And are you showing a film of yours at 3 Continents, or you're part of the organizing staff?
    Let me know when your webiste is ready so I can check it out! I'm always interested in your opinion on chinese cinema. :)
