Cannes

Wong Kar Wai is premiering his first English-language film at Cannes. I love Wong Kar Wai as much as anybody, but if the movie doesn't star Tony Leung, well, I'm just not that interested. Jude Law is no substitute for Tony Leung. Thus have I spoken.

Also, there's another Hong Kong special showing that is a collaboration between Tsui Hark, Johnnie To and Ringo Lam. I don't know what the Cantonese title is, but in English it should be called Too Many Cooks. I hope I'm wrong and it turns out to be some kind of monster-size masterpiece.

Yes, I should. Why hasn't my agent booked me into this event?
