Ang Lee

Taking Woodstock, Ang Lee’s latest film about the accidents, desperation, and missteps which led to the 1969 generation-defining concert, shares certain key elements with Cameron Crowe’s Almost Famous. They both chronicle the power of music to band and unite, or tear asunder; each illuminates a generation through rock ‘n’ roll; and both are responsible for introducing a rapturously captivating star.

Quentin Tarantino is returning to Cannes, the film festival where his second movie, a film that changed cinema forever, Pulp Fiction, won the prestigious Palme d’Or in 1994.

Quentin’s new movie, Inglourious Basterds, about a group of Jewish-American soldiers on a covert mission to brutally terrorize Nazis during the French occupation, will be competing against Ang Lee’s Taking Woodstock, Looking for Eric, which was directed by Ken Loach, who won the Palme d’Or in 2006 for The Wind That Shook the Barley, and 17 other films.

Allow us to put your mind at ease; The Incredible Hulk is just that, incredible.

Edward Norton brings fierce intellect and unassuming charm to his rendition of Bruce Banner. While Ferrigno (who appears in a delightful cameo and provides the voice of the Hulk) was muscular and lumbering whether he was the Hulk or Bruce, Norton’s slight frame makes the transformation into a mean, green, muscle machine that much more tantalizing. You can’t wait to see the beast within.
