The Search is directed by Michael Hazanavicius and depicts the horror and inhuman violence in the second Chechen War in 1999. This is a remake of Fred Zinnemann’s 1948 wartime melodrama. The movie takes us through the story of four lives that are somehow connected and brought together by a twist of fate. It’s strangely […]

I went to see this movie because it was in competition but I had no idea what this movie was about – no idea of the story, where it came from what it was about until now that I’ve seen it. And I still don’t really have a clear idea exactly what I saw. There […]

Captives – Ryan Reynolds

May 16, 2014 by SAPeople

sapeople - cannes film festival - captives

The Captives is a kidnapping thriller starring Ryan Reynolds – I was a little hesitant taking into consideration the last few movies Reynolds starred in but I should have had a bit more faith especially with Adam Egoyan as the director – he paints an intriguing and beautiful spectacle up on the screen. The Captives […]

sapeople - mr turner

Director Mike Leigh shows the last 25yers of J.M.W Turners life. He was a famous painter of Maritime and landscapes scenes and was one of the early practitioners of what would later be called impressionism – at the time nobody really new what it was. The movie doesn’t really cover this well at all even […]

Day 12 – The Final Countdown…

May 27, 2012 by Jenni Baxter

The atmosphere at the Palais right now is insane! It’s pouring with rain, but out on the red carpet, you’d think it was raining movie stars. Such an influx. Crowds are going crazy right now for France’s own Oscar-winner Jean du Jardin. They’re all gathering to watch the closing film…and then discover who has won […]

Day 11 – Come to Cannes!

Cannes Cars

You have to come to Cannes to truly appreciate it. Just returned from sipping cocktails on the Carlton Terrace where celebrities float in and out of the grandest hotel on the Croisette…whilst the music’s thumping at the beach parties on the other side of the road, the night lit up by purple fluorescent lights and […]

Day 10 – Robert Pattinson, Kanye, Kylie and du Cap

May 25, 2012 by Jenni Baxter

I’m exhausted. Had  COSMOPOLIS for breakfast, Kanye West’s CRUEL SUMMER for lunch…and RENOIR for dinner. And in between all of that managed to have a couple of Kir Royals on the Eden Roc terrace, with a dressed-down (but still gorgeous) Kylie Minogue sitting at the next table. (She’s here for “Holy Motors”.) Eden Roc is […]
