It’s finally here! The line up for the 66th Cannes Film Festival has officially been announced and we don’t think it would be too premature to say it has got a blinding line up. Films by Steven Soderbergh, Alexander Payne and The Coen Brothers will all be battling it out for the Palme d’Or prize this year, but one getting all the hype already is Nicolas Winding Refn’s ONLY GOD FORGIVES, which sees Refn reunited with Ryan Gosling after the success with the movie DRIVE. ‘Un Certain Regard’ also has some big ones, including Sofia Coppola’s THE BLING RING and James Franco’s AS I LAY DYING.
