For what movie was Claude LeLouche given an award and a 10-minute standing ovation in the Festival of Cannes?

♥PurePoison♥ asked:


I heard that Claude LeLouche did a film anonymously, and when the audience was told that he was the director, they stood and clapped for about 10 minutes. What is the name of that movie that he directed anonymously? And can you please paste a link to see a video of the 10 minute standing ovation or pictures of it?
Thanx

Spike Lee Rips Eastwood for WWII Films

CANNES, France (May 21) - Spike Lee is slamming Clint Eastwood over his two recent Iwo Jima movies, saying the filmmaker overlooked the role of black soldiers during World War II.

Lee - whose next film is this fall’s “Miracle at St. Anna,” the story of an all-black U.S. division fighting in Italy during the war - said Eastwood’s 2006 movies “Flags of Our Fathers” and “Letters From Iwo Jima” were whites-only affairs.

“He did two films about Iwo Jima back to back and there was not one black soldier in both of those films,” Lee said Tuesday at the Cannes Film Festival, where he was a judge in an online short-film competition.

“Many veterans, African-Americans, who survived that war are upset at Clint Eastwood. In his vision of Iwo Jima, Negro soldiers did not exist. Simple as that. I have a different version,” Lee said.

The Bourne trilogy Continues?

AlmaaPattinson asked:


k, So i am a huge fan of the Bourne Trilogy. I got obsessed with it like I did with Pirates of the Caribbean. My point is that it has been announced that another Jason Bourne Movie might be made. Two books have already been published: The Bourne Legacy AND The Bourne Betrayal. But bad news, Matt Damon told a room full of press at the Cannes Film Festival that he would NOT be returning for a fourth Jason Bourne film.. BUMMER right? “We have ridden that horse as far as we can.” He admitted to feeling like “a bit of a prosti*** for putting out two number threes in one year.” So the question now becomes, will the Jason Bourne series move on without Damon? The James Bond series did that and is working out just fine. But in many senses, this is different since Bourne’s story is a continuation while Bond’s film’s are more episodic than anything else. I love those movies and I honestly can say I would LOVE to see a fourth movie. What do you guys think.?

how do i enter to set world record for the film/movie with the most members of one family playing key roles?

manfred amata asked:


The Guiness world record to be set, will have members of one family in key roles. lead actor,director, producer, screenwriter, lead actress,film editor, production design and director of photography. the film will be from nigeria the amata dynasty of film makers, and must enter for internationally acknowledged film festivals, like cannes, berlin toronto, newyork film festivals and even the oscars. the amata family is made up of multiple award winning film makers from nigeria, fred amata, zack amata, ruke amata, jeta amata, viefe amata, oreva amata,stephanie amata agatha amata.we are poised to tell the intriguing story of john ifoghale amata, in a movie of same title performed by his children and grand children, so it is movie about an amata, starring amatas, produced by an amata, directed by an amata, written by an amata. it is our guess that a wotk of art of this nature has never been done before in world film making
