Yes You Cannes

Movies by Tarantino, Coppola and Ang Lee at the film festival

Monday, May 18, 2009



The Cannes Film Festival is underway, and many big name directors including Ang Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Pedro Almodovar, and Francis Ford Coppola are premiering films there this year. Movies by newer, riskier talents are also on offer at the festival. Karina Longworth, film critic and editor of SpoutBlog, a daily movie news blog, joins The Takeaway from Cannes to tell us what to watch.

One of the most anticipated films this year is the Korean film Thirst by director which offers a new take on the vampire story. It is definitely no Twilight:

John, pronounce Cannes like a "can"...add the extra a for a longer "caan" but still like a "can". Gabe is correcting you this morning while you are on the air...one semester and French and he knows...but he also has that ear. Use your cold this morning to it's full advantage..."caan" with a French accent.
ciao.
