With the Un Certain Regard category pretty much complete, we can now focus our attention on next week's announcements for the sidebar sections of the Director's Fortnight and Critic's Week. I've listed a whopping 26 films and I'm confident that several will show up in the approximate 30 or so feature films with many first-time works that will make up both sections (put together).
I've decided to come up with not a "revised" list of predictions per se, but instead, an updated list of 20 films that I both expect to announced in two weeks from now and that I'm especially looking forward in covering for this site.
Way before Elizabeth Taylor made it fashionable to go down the alter on multiple occasions, it was considered a lack of etiquette to get divorced and remarried, especially for 1930's British Royalty. Screen Daily reports that Madonna has added the counterpart (Ewan McGregor) to the attached Vera Farmiga's Wallis Simpson character.
I spent all of last week divulging some of films that I expect to be in Cannes this year, and Screen Daily happened to do the same. There are a good number of films that are mentioned of both sites' lists, but I mention about twenty films that the trade makes no mention of, and of course they have got a long list as well of films that I either passed on as potential selections or I was totally oblivious as to their existence.
I'll first begin with the titles that should be part of the Main Competition, Out of Competition and Special Screenings, and commencing Friday, I'll detail the harder to predict titles that we could find in the Un Certain Regard, Quinzaine (Director's Fortnight) and Critic's Week sections.
