Cannes 2010 lineup

Lots of good stuff.  Disappointed to see that Malick’s The Tree of Life apparently isn’t ready to be screened, and that Schnabel’s Miral was turned down and will be premiering at the Venice film fest instead.  But still, Cannes is always the best and most exciting festival, and I can’t wait to see a ton of the films on this list.  It’s also nice to see Mathieu Amalric and Diego Luna try their hand at directing.  Here’s the complete list:
