Cannes-do
So the Word on the Street is that Match Point, the new Woody Allen film that just debuted at Cannes, is his best movie since Crimes and Misdemeanors. I've read this now from three different sources, all of whom have seen the film and all of whom I consider to be objective about the Woodster, so I'm allowing myself to get excited. The world needs more great Allen films.

Speaking of Cannes, for all us David Lynch fans, he has a new movie coming out or in the works or something, shot in DV. Lynch also stated that he is never going to work with celluoid again, or at least thats the rumor. Quite interesting I would have to say...
Looks like more and more directors are jumping on the digital film bandwagon. With the final star wars coming out next week I think we might all get a good taste on why one day celluoid is going to be the way of the past.
Did I not say that Melinda and Melinda was his stepping stone back to greatness? I did say that, for those of you who are not Seb.
But lets not get too excited. These dufusses are saying it is better than
Sweet and Lowdown
Deconstructing Harry
Bullets Over Broadway and
Husbands and Wives
That is saying much more than I will believe until I see.
You know, if Match Point is only AS good as Husbands and Wives instead of better, I think that somehow, somewhere, I will pick up the shattered pieces, take a deep breath, and continue on. It'll be tough going, no one's denying that, but I'll do my damnedest to carry my head high for the rest of the year.
