Hey folks !!
For those fond of cinema
, it's the period : Cannes' festival (too bad it isn't Saint-Etienne's ...) takes place right now until the May, 25th.
the members of the jury 2008 : (you'll probably know some of them)
-Sean Penn (famous for his movie "the Indian runner") : he is the president of the jury
-Nathalie Portman (she played in "Star wars", "V for Vendetta", ... you heard about her I'm sure)
-Sergio Castellitto (italian actor and filmmaker)
-Alexandra Maria Lara (she played in FFCoppola's recent movie "youth without youth" ... the title is a hint to all of you
more seriously i haven't seen the movie)
-Alfonso Cuaron (he did "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban")
-Apichatpong Weerasethakul (he comes from Thailand. Don't know him... what about you ??)
-Jeanne Balibar (french actress but I never heard about her either... do you ??)
-Rachid Bouchareb (he did "Indigenes" about the independance of Algeria)
-Marjane Satrapi (she did "Persepolis", pretty good movie !!)
