Hope for the future

I’ve been meaning to get around to this since I read an article by Mike Goodridge in Screen International during the Berlinale, especially because it gave me such…hope, after what has felt like a lackluster start to the 2008 festival season. I haven’t been thrilled by a whole lot this year at Sundance and Berlin, but according to Mike, here are some of the possibilities that could turn up in Cannes, and they excite me a lot: a new film by Wim Wenders, The Palermo Shooting; the Dardenne brother’s The Silence of Lorna; Walter Salles’ Linha  De Passe; Carlos Cuaron’s Rudo Y Cursi; Fernando Meirelles' adaptation of Portuguese novelist Jose Saramago’s Blindness (the film, however, will be in English and stars Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo and Gael Garcia Bernal which, having read and liked the book, gives me pause); Tran Anh Hung has a new film called I Come With the Rain, and I generally like him, but this is also English language and stars Josh Hartnett…so, again, pause; Jia Zhang-ke hardly ever goes wrong in my book and has a new film called 24 City; I’ve been dying to see Kim Jee-woon’s The Good, The Bad and The Weird since I read about it more than a year ago; I missed Kim Ki-duk’s Dream in Berlin and he is one my favorites; both Kiyoshi Kurosawa and Hirokazu Kore-eda have new films…Tokyo Sonata and Even If You Walk and Walk, respectively; and there are plenty more possibilities by Michael Winterbottom, Barbet Schroeder and Agnes Varda among others.

It looks like it might be a very, very nice May.
