MSM is just such an incredible actress that I think American > critics have difficulty seeing that -- it's almost like she's TOO good. > You (at least I) so completely forget that she's not who she's playing > that it's a shock to realize Oh yeah, this is an ACTRESS not Idgie, Joon, > Terry, et. al. Now just so I don't get misquoted here, I'm not saying that HP and AatKoP are in competition at Cannes, just that they are screening there. Cannes, besides being a film festival, is also used by the film companies to get their films seen and (hopefully) find buyers for the European distribution rights. So I don't know if MSM is there or not -- but the films are. But then again, I haven't heard of any MSM sightings around Westwood recently, so who knows? Johnnie J. Young jjyoung@primenet.com
