Southland Tales competes in Cannes Film Festival!
'Southland Tales' will be competing against 19 other films for the coveted 'Palme d'Or' award at this years Cannes Film Festival, which will take place on May 17th! |
 Of the 19 films "In Competition," only a few are from directors who have contested the top prize previously, in contrast to last year's lineup dominated by Cannes regulars.
The field includes Richard Linklater's "Fast Food Nation," an ensemble drama featuring Patricia Arquette, Ethan Hawke and Greg Kinnear; Richard Kelly's comedy musical thriller "Southland Tales," starring the Rock, Seann William Scott, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Mandy Moore; and Sofia Coppola's biopic "Marie-Antoinette," starring Kirsten Dunst and Jason Schwartzman.
Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's drama "Babel," starring Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett and Gael Garcia Bernal, also made the cut. British hopes for the Palme d'Or will rest for the eighth time on Ken Loach and his film about Irish republicanism, "The Wind That Shakes the Barley."
The only Asian film to compete will be Ye Lou's Chinese entry "Summer Palace." Chinese director Wong Kar Wai will head this year's jury.
Notable Out of Competition screenings include Brett Ratner's "X-Men: The Last Stand" and DreamWorks Animation's raccoon tale "Over the Hedge." The festival runs through May 28.
