in response to TheWeekendWarrior's post Also Hope.
Cannes: 9 of the 22 films in competition for the Palme has screened. Of those, 3 of the 9 seems to have solidly hit.

Screen Daily only has 2 over a score of 3 and 4 are below a score of 2 but only 2 of the betting favorites has played so far

Favorites not yet screened: Hope (Hong-Jin, the early favorite); Fjord (Mungiu); and Minotaur (Zvyagintsev).

The other 2 of the top 5 early betting line favorites that've screened: Fatherland and Parallel Tales (Farhadi), which didn't score well.

We're all anxiously awaiting word on Hope. Do you wish you were there Warrior? I know I always do. Like Venice; like Berlin and Telluride.

I love the movies; i always yearn for it. i'm hoping that, when I have some more time (post retirement) I can do a couple of these.

Lots of positive social media reactions. Nah, I'd rather wait until I can just go see these movies at a screening room.

Well. Hope clearly got the biggest response Sunday night; but it seems to polarizing to have any chance at the Palme. Sure want to see it!!
