Brad Pitt Back in Cannes, Awaiting Angelina
Originally posted 05/18/2009 08:50AM
As the sea along the Cote D'Azur shimmered in the sunshine, Brad Pitt arrived to add some further sparkle to his familiar springtime haunt, the Cannes Film Festival.
Pitt, 45, was spotted Saturday at the Hotel du Cap, having lunch on a balcony after flying in from the U.S. It is said he is staying in a chalet on the grounds of the highly exclusive hotel, just along the coast in Antibes, on the Riviera.
The star is in the South of France for his fourth Cannes Film Festival in five years. And, if Angelina Jolie, 33, joins him in the next few days as is expected, this will mark the third time they have strolled the palm-lined Croisette waterfront together in as many years.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to Three-Peat at Cannes
Originally posted 05/13/2009 02:45PM
The third time will be glorious at Cannes as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are expected to walk the red carpet again at the South of France film festival, which began Wednesday.
Pitt is in town to push his Quentin Tarantino-helmed Inglourious Basterds and Jolie is likely to get time off from filming Salt to join him May 20. It will be the third time in a row the pair have jetted in, with Jolie attending last year while pregnant with twins.
Other celebrities to watch out for are Academy Award-winner Penélope Cruz, whose Broken Embraces, directed by Pedro Almodovar, is in competition, and actress Robin Wright Penn, who is a member of the jury panel.

Cannes Film Festival Closes
Originally posted 05/26/2008 09:00AM
The dollar wasn't the only thing hurting at this year's disappointing Cannes Film Festival, which wrapped on Sunday with the festival's highest honor, the Palme d'Or, being awarded to the French film, The Class. (See a full list of winners.)
This year's main competition, featuring 22 films (including four by American directors), was generally considered a less than thrilling year, with only a few outstanding films, including Clint Eastwood's Changeling, and a couple outright stinkers.

Michelle Williams Dazzles at Cannes Film Festival
Originally posted 05/22/2008 08:45PM
Michelle Williams made a dramatic, last-minute appearance at the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday, walking her first red carpet since Heath Ledger's death to promote her film Wendy and Lucy.
"It was decided on Monday night that she could come to Cannes, and she got on the next plane to arrive just in time to get dressed and come to our premiere," said a rep for Wendy and Lucy. "She came in and had a long nap and then came to the screening."
Williams, 27, was radiant in a vintage Chanel Haute Couture dress. She will remain in Cannes at least through Friday night to promote another festival movie in which she appears, Synecdoche, New York, before flying back to the United States to resume filming a Martin Scorsese movie in Boston.

Cannes Diary: Thumbs Up for Ocean's Thirteen
Originally posted 05/29/2007 07:50AM
For a festival celebrating its 60th year, the Cannes Film Festival proved mighty frisky. Sure, a handful of the 21 international titles in competition were dolorous arthouse tush-testers – but enough films pleased, entertained and touched a viewer that Cannes 2007 turned out to be memorable.

Cannes: Best & Worst of the Fest
Originally posted 05/24/2006 01:00PM
Here's what's cool about the Cannes Film Festival: You're just ambling along on a small side street in this sunny beach town in the South of France, and whom should you see dining at an outdoor café but The Rock. He's laughing and joking, and clearly not in the dumps over the dismal reception that greeted his movie Southland Tales.

Cannes: The Croisette & Croissants
Originally posted 05/19/2006 04:00PM
The Croisette and croissants are key to the Cannes Film Festival. Figure out how to negotiate the first, a beautiful seaside promenade, and where to get decent samples of the second and you are set to survive the annual madness that is France's Cannes Film Festival.

Paris Does Cannes
Originally posted 05/16/2005 12:00PM
Paris Hilton, Sharon Stone and Star Wars storm troopers (dressed in gleaming, clanking white plastic armor) all mingled through packed photo calls at the Cannes International Film Festival this weekend, bringing to mind the old Sesame Street song lyric: "One of these things is not like the others..."
