Top 100 Most Anticipated Films of 2011: Paolo Sorrentino’s This Must Be the Place
I’m working with the fact that Sorrentino’s Il Divo was one of my, and Sean Penn’s highlights of the 2008 Cannes edition, but this quasi road-trip, revenge tale that borrows from the rapport of father-and-sons and works with the events of the Holocaust means this will surely fall flat or be a rather unique, welcome diversion.

List Worthy Reasons…: I’m working with the fact that Sorrentino’s Il Divo was one of my, and Sean Penn’s highlights of the 2008 Cannes edition, but this quasi road-trip, revenge tale that borrows from the rapport of father-and-sons and works with the events of the Holocaust means this will surely fall flat or be a rather unique, welcome diversion.
Release Date/Status?: Having preemed his last film in Cannes and with Sean Penn on board, I imagine this is hitting the Croisette in May.
