Barry Norman 's Guide to the Cannes Film Festival
Cannes is the world's most famous film festival, a curious mixture of art, money and hype. While the media compete with each other for the most exclusive and glamorous stories, moguls from around the world hustle to buy and sell movies, and poseurs from every corner of the film industry struggle to get invited to the right parties.
And almost an afterthought, a select group of international films compete for the coveted Palme D'Or.
Barry Norman casts an experienced eye over the proceedings.
Director JENNY ABBOTT Producer JANE LUSH
