Hollywood Through a Different Lens.

Laurent Cantet’s “The Class” (Entre les murs) an evocation of contemporary society as seen through a year’s worth of events in a Paris junior high school won the Palme d’Or of the 61st Cannes Film Festival. It is the first French film to cop the festival’s top prize since “Under the Satan’s Sun” 20 years ago.

Indian Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull staring Harrison Ford will debut at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival on May 18th.  It hits theaters on May 22nd.  Below is the movie poster.  I love how it remains true to the other Indian Jones posters.
