60th Festival de Cannes

Programs and list of 60th Cannes international film festival are announced on 19th April.
The list is splendid and surprising. I know almost of the directors invited. Party with masters!
Wong Kar Wai's 'My Blueberry Nights' is the opening films.
I am reallllly looking forward to his new films. After watching 'Hand', his former films and one episode of 'Eros', I recommended it to all people I know, wrote and sent a article about it, and published the article in a magazine, Cine21, 3 years ago.
Could you imagine how much I have been waiting for it??
But If I would go to Cannes and have an opportunity to see only one of film in Cannes, I will choose Mogari no Mori(殯の森, The mourning Forest) by Kawase Naomi without hesitation.
Because many of films will be released in Korea as well as Wong Kar wai. He is very popular here. So far, it is hard to imagine to go to cinema to see Kawase Naomi's films in Korea.
I have seen only 2 of her films. Her films seem to embrace the world even if the world dismiss her. Those features in her films are unfamiliar and a little cold, however, there is a something to shake.

2 of korean movies are invited in competition section. One is the 'Breath' by Kim Ki-duk(already wrote about it) and another is '밀양'(Secret sunshine, originally 밀양-Mil yang-is the name of a korean city) by Lee Chang-dong who is at first a director of course, but was a Minister of Culture and Tourism of Korean Government for years. This film is the first one after resigning from the minister. I like his former movies, so expect his new one and worry about the change worse after the minister. Secret sunshine is decided to be released in korea. And this weekend I am going to cinema for Breath.
