The Good, Bad, and Good (But Upsetting) Films from Cannes
Cannes is underway, and if you (like us) don’t have the luxury of hanging out in France to see the rough cuts of hot new movies and witness the bidding wars, our roundup is the next best thing. We’ve got the deets on which films are looking good and which have alrady flopped. This year there seems to be an interesting dichotomy between films that had great buzz: There were those that either met or exceeded expectations (and got some financial backing for their efforts), and then those that were well-done but highly disturbing in terms of subject matter.

Lindsay Lohan As A Gun-Toting Nun In ‘Machete’
I’m sorry, I don’t care how hard Robert Rodriguez expects us to suspend our disbelief for his new movie Machete, there is no reality in which someone would let Lindsay Lohan anywhere near a gun.

Lindsay Lohan Makes Bail Before Arrest
In the ongoing saga of Lindsay Lohan’s Jailgate 2010, the “actress” has posted $10,000 of her $100,000 bail after a warrant was issued for her arrest.

Marion Cottillard’s Hat Hair
The Frisky is calling French actress Marion Cottillard’s hair “rockabilly,” but we think it looks more like a front-end version of the Topsy Tail we used to sport in 5th grade. Also, it somewhat resembles a hat, non?

Video on the Cannes red carpet – by special request
A few PittWatch readers have emailed me to ask if I could post a video clip of Brad Pitt walking down the Cannes red carpet to get Angelina Jolie after he had finished posing with the cast of Inglourious Basterds. It was very cute the way he immediately went over to her so they could walk together.

Vote at People.com – What do you think of Angelina Jolie’s dress?
I got an email this morning from the StyleWatch folks at People.com asking me if I could spread the word here at PittWatch because they have a special poll up about the slit on Angelina Jolie’s dress at Cannes. Since I love People, how could I resist?
They’re wondering if we think the slit in Angie’s dress is super sexy or if it’s a little too high. Please go vote in their poll. When I voted (choosing “sexy”… More »

I’m still reeling from all the red carpet photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie at Cannes yesterday, aren’t you? I figured that was as good a reason as any to put a few more up for you to enjoy.
