CANNES 2006: Pics from Pan, Southland, Babel and More!

For two weeks in May, anyone who is anyone in the film world heads to La Croisette for this fortnight of cinematic celebration. The Cannes festival this year takes place from May 17th through May 28th and we are lucky enough to have just added over 45 new images from a few of this year’s bigger films from the fest.

I hope this is not my only Cannes preview, but I cannot guarantee anything. Until I get a chance to peruse my way through the rest of the films. Either way I hope you enjoy this initial offering and apologize for it being primarily bigger name films since festivals are about the little guy.

THE AWARDS!!!

Here we have a couple of good looks at the awards that will be handed out to this year’s winners (except they will be year 2006 of course). The Caméra d’Or Prize, presented during the Festival’s Closing Ceremony, is an award for the best first feature film presented in one of the Cannes’ selections (Official Selection, Director’s Fortnight or International Critic’s Week).

The Palme d’Or (“Golden Palm”) is the name of the highest prize given to a film at the Festival, previous winners include L’Enfant (2005), Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) and The Pianist (2002). Click here to check out all the past winners.
