Cannes Clips

With Cannes finally, concluded, here's a handful of peeks at the films that won awards during tonight's ceremony (or in France, last night). Of all of these, the ones that pique my interest the most are Grand Jury Prize winner Of Gods and Men and Palme D'Or winner Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives. The latter in particular looks beautifully, lushly shot, and from what I've carries an amusing mix of bizarro-fairy tale elements that add up to a mesmerizing whole. If the 2.5 minute clip is indicative of the film as a whole, then it's no wonder that Burton and his merry jurors picked it for the Palme.
