The most prestigious festival of them all begin on the 15th of next month and run through the 26th, and out of it we’ll be hearing about a ton of exciting films. Directors like The Coen Brothers, Sofia Coppola, Nicholas Winding Refn, Roman Polanski, Takashi Miike, Francois Ozon, Steven Soderbergh, Alexander Payne, J.C. Chandor, James Franco, James Toback, and so many more have films in and out of competition.
