Toronto's TIFF Bell Lightbox will be presenting a full retrospective on American filmmaker Terrence Malick commencing June 4, leading up to the Canadian premiere of his newest film, the Palme d'Or-winning The Tree of Life, as it hits Toronto theatres on June 10. Of course, a 'full' retrospective on Malick will consist of only a mere five films - the same number as TIFF's 'New Auteurs' filmmakers Denis Côté and Kelly Reichardt.

Now that all bets are off on Terrence Malick showing up on the Lido, and Wong Kar-wai's The Grand Master appears to be on the same no-show list (the fest have announced that Andrew Lau's The Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen has their second opening night flick celebrating the anniversary of Bruce Lee’s 70th birthday).

Cannes announced 16 films in the Main Competition today and the Un Certain Regard is perhaps complete but could fit two more titles in, but as expected, Terrence Malick's film is still in limbo. Apart from that frustrating example, there are about three to five available slots in the Main Comp and some hefty titles that are missing in action. I've compiled a list below, but worth mentioning are blatant omissions such as Julian Schnabel's Miral, Kornel Mundruczo's Frankenstein Project, Ken Loach's Route Irish and perhaps even Bruce Robinson's The Rum Diary.
