Coverage of Cannes is coming this week.
How much is still up in the air since as I am writing this titles are still dribbling in.
Coverage is always a crap shoot, with titles dependent upon which PR firm I'm dealing with and what films they can actually send. (Some films can't travel)
Keep checking in and see what I’ve reviewed.

I’ve seen a handful of films for Film At Lincoln Center’s Open Roads look at Italian Cinema. I’ve liked what I’ve seen. I am waiting on a bunch more.
Right now my advice is buy tickets and go

I am wading into Tribeca’s selection. Weirdly it is not as short heavy as it was last year..
I’m curious how it will play out since based on clues in the PR emails press screenings are going to be a bit different than in previous years.
I've seen a few great films. Nothing too terrible
And after over 30 films I've seen my first "Tribeca film", which is a film film that was very much of a type that its it good, but by the numbers, of a type and will probably not really be seen anywhere ever again.
A NOTE TO PR PEOPLE WITH FILMS AT TRIBECA
The plan right now is to do as I have always done and slot reviews for the festival every three hours (the spacing allows the reviews to be seen and not get swallowed up). Every film I see before the festival is going to get it's own review. As of right now I have slotted 36 review- shorts, mostly features, mostly new stuff but some reposts. I am slotting things in the order that I see them and write them up. If you were planning on sending links do so sooner than later so that the reviews get closer to the embargo drop.

I saw Luke Evans do Sweet Transvesite with the cast of the current Rocky Horror Show on Broadway from the Tonight Show.
He is magnificent. As good as Tim Curry and Tom Hewitt (who was Frank in the previous Broadway incarnation.
I'm not so sure about the rest of the cast (I am mixed about the choices).
But what does it matter I'm not going. I just can't afford it

I saw PROJECT HAIL MARY- I loved it.
I'll have a review soon

The Pittsburgh Posts are coming. I have the piece kind of written, and they need art and to be tweaked
