| I'm certainly interested in the Cannes festival, and not only because of the
weather and the beach...in spite of the media circus, it's an important platform
for new films. And it takes serious films more seriously than the anglophone
distributors seem to.
As for French films and actors, I agree Ms Adjani is beautiful, but I'm afraid I
personally stopped being all that interested round about 1946 (as it were). Most
70s-90s French films seem to me to be all style and not much substance.
I exaggerate, of course. I enjoy some of Godard's games and some of the
religious ideas, but only Bunuel really hits the spot for me--he's not French,
but he sends up the obsession with style, eroticism and religion mercilessly,
which I find really funny. Which I suppose means that I quite like the sort of
films that he's sending up.
But given the choice of Gabin or Depardieu (or a film with either of them), I
know which I'd watch.

| Yes, I'm interested. Can anyone go or do you have to be rich and
famous? Have you been there? It sounds delightful.
I like Gerard Depardieu, in French films. My Father, The Hero was an
American film, right? I thought that was a cheap and tasteless movie
in which his talent was wasted and he sold out to Hollywood's crass
values. I'm not familiar with any other French actors.

My father, the hero was an American remake of the French original.

545.5 | is this correct ? | VNABRW::BARTAK | Andrea Bartak, Vienna, Austria | Fri May 27 1994 11:35 | 7 |
| Can anyone provide a list of the winners.
I remember having read in the newspapers, that best film was a movie of
Quentin Tarantino with Bruce Willis and John Travolta ?!?!? I do not
remember the title, something with "pipe" or similar.

Some did not approve of the choice, apparantly.
