Cannes 70th

I always look forward to the official poster the Cannes Festival puts out - they are, by far, the best graphics of any festival.

Celebrating its 70th year, the 2017 poster is a standout.  It is a 1959 photo of a dancing Claudia Cardinale against a stunning red backdrop with gold lettering and highlights. The poster makes a great statement and puts forth an image of a vibrant and modern event but one rooted in history.

The 12 day Festival will run from May 17-28.

The list of Award nominees has not yet been issued but the Cannes roster of films is usually a blend of the exotic and commercial spiced-up with the political and controversial. We look forward to selecting our favorite Cannes movie posters which has become a CMG annual to do.
