| REVIEW: Hopelessly Romantic; Jaglom Takes on that "Festival in Cannes" (719 words) |
| "Festival in Cannes" is not the first time Jaglom has trained his camera on the film industry itself, but in the decade between the Venice Film Festival-lensed "Venice/Venice" and this film, his insights have grown sharper, shrewder, more truthfully comic. |
| Jaglom begins by defining these people in terms of their achievements, breaking them up into the haves and the have-nots, but by the end of "Festival in Cannes," the succinct point is made that, in the movie business, everyone is essentially a have-not, because there's always something more to have. |
| The primary appeal of "Festival in Cannes" is simple: Jaglom is, and always has been, a hopeless romantic, and he makes hopelessly romantic pictures -- movies that, even when tinged with bittersweet, yearn for old-fashioned Hollywood romance, when people in movies spoke wittily and intelligently about their feelings for one another. |
