More Cote d’Azur Guesswork
On 2.18 Screen Daily ran a Cannes 2010 spitball piece, speculating on several titles that seemed likely to play at the 63rd annual fest. Now the Indiewire team (Brian Brooks, Eugene Hernandez, Peter Knegt, Sophia Savage, Nigel Smith, Basil Tsiokos) has posted more or less the same deal, albeit with interesting additions.
Naomi Watts, Anthony Hopkins during filming of Woody Allen‘s You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger.
Their coolest speculative selection by far is Doug Liman‘s Fair Game, about the Valerie Plame-Joseph Wilson-Karl Rove scandal which jolted the Bush presidency and brought down poor Scooter Libby. Brooks feels it has “more than a fair chance of debuting in Cannes.” Leading costars include Sean Penn and Naomi Watts (also in Woody Allen‘s Cannes-bound You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger).
Other new Cannes suppositions are Clint Eastwood‘s Hereafter, Guillame Canet‘s Little White Lies, Cam Archer‘s Shit Year, Robert Rodriguez‘s Machete (most likely another bullshit genre wallow) and Susanne Bier‘s The Revenge.
The official Cannes 2010 lineup will begin to be announced on 4.15. Ridley Scott‘s Robin Hood has already been announced as the opener.Oliver Stone‘s Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps is also expected to show.
The repeats from the Screen Daily list include Allen’s You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu‘s Biutiful, Darren Aronofsky‘s Black Swan, Terrence Malick‘s The Tree Of Life, John Cameron Mitchell‘s Rabbit Hole, Sofia Coppola‘s Somewhere, Jodie Foster‘s The Beaver, Bruce Robinson‘s The Rum Diary, Oren Peli‘s Area 51, David O. Russell‘s The Fighter, Julie Taymor‘s The Tempest, Peter Weir‘s The Way Back, Sylvester Stallone‘s The Expendables, and Julio Medem‘s Room In Rome.
Possible British submissions include Stephen Frears‘ Tamara Drewe, Mike Leigh‘s Another Year, Kevin Macdonald‘s Eagle Of The Ninth, David Mackenzie‘s The Last Word, and Peter Mullan‘s Neds.
Likely French entries include Julian Schnabel‘s Miral, Bertrand Tavernier‘s The Princess Of Montpensier, Jean-Luc Godard‘s Socialisme, Bertrand Blier‘s The Clink Of Ice, Isabelle Czajka‘s Living On Love Alone, Rachid Bouchareb‘s Hors-La-Loi, Lola Doillon‘s Sous Ton Emprise and Julie Bertucelli‘s The Tree.
Possible Asian submissions include Johnnie To‘s Death Of A Hostage (Hong Kong), Takashi Miike‘s Thirteen Assassins (Japan), and Im Sang-soo‘s The Housemaid (Korea).
And from Canada, the possible appearance of Xavier Dolan‘s Love, Imagined.
Poor Scooter Libby? Yeah, okay, he was a fall guy, a scapegoat, I’ll give you that. But who can you feel sorry for a guy who quite willingly played the role of Satan’s lapdog for over a decade?
Libby and Cheney were best buds. Anyone who call Dick Cheney a friend is no innocent. He deserved what he got by default. Even though it is Cheney who should be in jail.
That’s quite an impressive line up of American films, though. Especially the long awaited return of , Weir, Malick, O. Russell, and Inarritu.
Anyone who takes a bullet for his boss is getting a raw deal. That’s why I used the adjective “poor.” That said, “Satan’s lapdog” is an entirely fair description of what Libby was.
Pretty soon Vinessa’s going to simply take over Hollywood-Elsewhere. I hope she doesn’t fire Jeffrey Wells. He often has some good stuff to contribute.
(now the question is… will this comment of mine draw a chuckle from medicated, Happy Vinessa, or a furious, profanity-filled screed burning with the heat of a thousand suns from Angry Ball of Hate Vinessa?)
Just when spring looks like a string of crappy movies, along comes a Cannes list I can browse and find at least five must-see titles. The second half of any year is always better than the first half.
It couldn’t be more obvious to everyone but Crabtree that Vinessa is this week’s incarnation of the always-charming Jacques Tati, though this new weird thing where he actually pretends to be her, literally, down to discussing her roles, is a nice masterstroke.
LADYBUGS POWER.
Wasn’t Vinessa Shaw the girl at the center of Hombregate in the wake of “3:10 to Yuma”? I mean, why has this poster now, in the past week or so (as far as I’ve noticed), named his/herself after a scandal figurehead from two years ago and suddenly established a dominant presence in every talkback thread?
*and Gabriel, Lex. But that would explain a lot.
Unless FAIR GAME has Billy Baldwin, Cindy Crawford, Steven Berkoff, and a scene where Berkoff’s goons scope Baldwin through infrared heat-seeking goggles and he throws them off by taking a shower so cold his body temperature apparently goes down to ZERO and he becomes invisible…
then they might wanna change the title.
LEX PET PEEVE #1: Re-using titles. See CRASH. See MAN WHO WASN’T THERE.
NO TITLE SHOULD EVER BE REUSED, EVER.
Aw Travis, you know I love you!
I do believe it’s possible to differentiate between one’s political views (as disdainful, distasteful, and reprehensible as they might be) from their other, individual qualities, Crabtree.
Though I do find that part of you to be quite a turn-off, when it comes to your contributions to this site as far as movies are concerned, well, I think you’re the bee’s knee’s. And you can be really quite funny and entertaining.
And agreed, Jeff. Scooter got a raw deal. But if you lie down with dogs, and sell yourself to the devil himself, you kind of get what’s coming to you.
But you got to say this about Dick, he fought tooth-and-nail with Bush, including a largely reported screaming match they had when he was reluctant to pardon Scooter at Cheney’s insistence, so he is, at least, a loyal friend. Even if he committed high treason when he outed Plame to his other lapdog, Bob Novak.
And Lex, you’re adorable! Keep on being your Lexy-Sexy self! Don’t let the turkey’s get you down!
You’re also right about the titles thing. But then again, you are almost always right about everything.
LEXIMUS MAXIMUS, may you forever reign supreme!!
And one more thing, Lex. You are way too clever, way too smart, and way too delicious to be spending your days in a cave, slaving away writing captions for porn.
You really just need to get out more. And by getting out more I mean getting in your car and heading up the PCH to Big Sur for some fresh air. Maybe build a fire, pitch a tent (I’m sure you’re good at that!), take in the sites, become one with nature for awhile. Go on WALKABOUT or something (but not in Roeg sense, though I do find that scene between that blossoming girl and that aborigine to be quite stimulating, if you know what I mean. But seriously), just get OUT there. Find your smile again. Lift your spirits before your soul is sucked out permanently and you end up wandering around Sunset, searching around endlessly, trying to get it back again like Paul Giamatti.
Once you’re there, you might start to feel a little less dragged-down by that lonely life you seem to lead and start to feel a little better about yourself. Because you are no slouch.
Let me tell you straight, Sexy Lexy. You need another job. Period.
I can tell you right now. If you started your own site, you would have quite a following. And hell, then maybe Jeff can link to your hysterical rants rather than being stuck having to read any more links to Marshall Fine.
Your site would be epic. You could make money at it, too.
Not at first, it would take awhile, but why not start developing something that you can ease into while you ease out of what you’re doing now?
Just some thoughts. Hope you don’t mind. Off to the scary Russian lady for a Brazilian to remove that small bit of hair left on my behind.
Why bother with tjitles like “Shit Year” (not talking about the movie here, the title.) It’s gong to have to change to something else for ads and marquees, so why not come up with one title now that it can stick with and avoid the future question, “Wasn’t that the movie they used to call Shit Year?”
Valid point, Noah. Though, I wonder if the reason it’s called Shit Year has anything to with the fact that Archer is a homosexual?
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
I love the gays. What girl doesn’t? It was just too easy.
And despite the fact that it won’t be distributed under that name, as you said, Shit Year is just a bad title. Period.
Speaking of periods…
Oh, never mind.
It’s weird they could gear up a sequel to LEAP yEAR so quickly. Also would Allen be in competition, and isn’t that something of an event
The Beaver, Black Swan, The Fighter, The Rum Diary, & The Tree of Life…man I wish I had the money to cover Cannes.
Also would Allen be in competition
Why would he be?
Speaking of titles that will never actually make it to a marquee, I still can’t get over the fact that Jodie made a movie called The Beaver. It’s as if Dick had been directed by Kevin Spacey.
“Off to the scary Russian lady for a Brazilian to remove that small bit of hair left on my behind.”
I just did a spit take.
I hope she doesn’t fire Jeffrey Wells. He often has some good stuff to contribute.
Almost any situation —good or bad— is affected by the cheap prada shoes attitude we bring to.
And agreed, Jeff. Scooter got a raw deal. But if you lie down with dogs, and sell yourself to the devil himself, you kind of get what’s coming to you.
