Premiers

"Babel" and "Flanders" premier tonight at the Festival in the Lumiere Theater.

Ledger to Play Dylan

Heath Ledger and wife Michelle Williams have joined the star studded cast of Dylan biopic "Im Not There." Other cast members include Cate Blanchett, Richard Gere, Christian Bale and Ben Winshaw. The film is said to be a sure fire contender for next years film festival. The film is directed by Tod Haynes and the soundtrack will include songs by The White Stripes, PJ Harvey, and REMs Michael Stipe. Shooting start in July.

Fairytale Pan

Guillermo Del Toro's "Pan's Labyrinth" is about a young girl who enters the labyrinth of her imagination. It is a juxtaposed war movie with a fairytale. Pan's is not a horror though. It is dark and has scary parts. Del Toro calls it a dark fairytale. Del Toro sketched each creature himself. He also did the sets and most elements of design. Pans's Labyrinth debuts the last day of the Festival.
