No Cannes do

Once again I will be heading straight past the Croisette and proceeding directly to Venice where Quentin Tarantino has just been announced as head of the jury for the 67th Venice Film Festival which runs September 1-11.

Considering Sofia Coppola's Somewhere and Terrence Malick's Tree Of Life are both rumoured to be premiering there, it looks like the Lido is the place to be.

Although no Tarantino film has unspooled in Venice, he has godfathered two Venice sidebars in recent years, the Italian King of the Bs retrospective in 2004 and one on Spaghetti Westerns in 2007.
