Maggie Cheung wins Best Actress at the Cannes International Film Festival for the French film "Clean" =D

I'm looking forward to "2046" a lot. Even though it didn't win any awards (despite being the tipped Palme d'Or winner), just the cast alone is enough to make me drool. Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Faye Wong, Kimura Takuya... w00t!

"Breaking News" got to be shown out of competition... but I don't think I'd like it, since people raved about PTY too, by the same director, and I would have fallen asleep watching it, if I wasn't either laughing or swearing through the entire film.

"House of Flying Daggers", also shown out of competition... okay, not my thing again. Films like this and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are made for awards, not for entertainment. Westerners may like it coz it's something different, but these films bore the hell outta me.

Any idea when it'll be shown?
