Let me get my juvenile gloating out of the way. <nelson>Har, har</nelson> Thank you.
Look at Michael Moore’s Palm O’Gold at Cannes this way. So many people win:
- Moore got more publicity.
- Quentin Tarantino, chair of this year’s jury, got to throw a huge bomb.
-
The chattering classes on the Right have been fed raw meat, and can now rant on about French perfidity. (Even if the international jury was chaired by an American.)
I can’t wait to read the Shorter DenBeste on this.
- The chattering classes on the Left count coup (see first paragraph.)
Meanwhile, Filmbrain (you’ve subscribed to his feed, haven’t you?) is unexpectedly happy. His favorite in this year’s field took second place.
