Silver Lake at the Croisette

.

I don't know how I totally forgot about this being a thing but I did indeed totally forgot that Andrew Garfield is starring in the new movie from David Robert Mitchell, the director of It Follows (see our previous post on it here) -- it's called Under the Silver Lake and it's described as a "neo-noir" set in los Angeles but other than that we don't know a lot. Anyway it's screening at Cannes, so we'll know more soon. (ETA nevermind - it isn't screening at Cannes, ignore that! Sorry - the link given below is incorrect on that info)

I was reminded of this movie's existence via this list of the scary movies playing at Cannes - they kind of stretch the definition of "horror" by including Jane Campion's Top of the Lake and Michael Haneke's latest, but they do have word that Yorgos Lanthimos' film The Killing of a Sacred Deer with Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman is actually classified at the fest as "horror," which is a thrill.

Speaking of Haneke though the first clip from Happy End has arrived (via) -- and yes I'm sure we'll be getting first looks at all the big movies playing Cannes in short course but this is a biggy, methinks...
