Don't Forget Inglourious is Bloody

Apparently it's not too early to keep your ears open to films that will be shown at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. Already there are reports that a film by Iranian director, Abbas Kiarostami, will be shown at next year's festival.

The film, Certified Copy, was shot in Tuscany; so I have an inkling the cinematography will have something to offer. It stars French actress Juliette Binoche of Chocolat, Bee Season, and Dan in Real Life- to name a few.

Kiarostami is no newbie to the festival. In 1997 he won the Golden Palm award for his film Ta'm e guilass, and was nominated two other years for the award.

In other somewhat unrelated news:
A friend and I went to see Inglourious Basterds last week. I saw it at the festival, and loved it. But I had somehow forgotten how bloody it is. She's not very fond of blood... Woops.
