Ieri è stata diffusa la lista ufficiale di Cannes 69, nessun italiano in concorso dopo la tripletta dello scorso anno (Moretti, Sorrentino, Garrone) ma diversi film di genere per una kermesse che si preannuncia di puro godimento.
Indovinate (anche se altamente scontate) le nostre previsioni di mesi fa nel vedere il danese Refn in concorso con il suo personale cannibal movie (o almeno così è stato definito) The Neon Demon, e il nuovo autore del cinema mondiale Xavier Dolan con Juste La Fin Du Monde. Poi ancora: Park Chan-Wook (!), Jeff Nichols, il ritorno del grande Paul Verhoeven, Jim Jarmusch, il nuovo film da regista di Sean Penn più i classici abituali: dai fratelli Dardenne a Ken Loach e l’ultimo Almadovar con il suo Julieta.
Dispiace non vedere Scorsese, lo abbiamo sperato in tanti ma il suo Silence non è ancora pronto (pare lo sarà per il festival di New York ad Ottobre) ma c’è curiosità fuori concorso per Spielberg, che ritorna a sapori squisitamente 80’s con il Grande Gigante Gentile, e per Shane Black che presenterà Nice Guys la dark comedy vietata ai minori con la coppia Russel Crowe e Ryan Gosling.
