| The line up for the 2009 Cannes Film Festival has been announced, and it promises to be a rather interesting year on the Croissette. Quite a few Cannes-favourite directors return to the fold – Almodovar, Tarantino, Von Trier, To and Campion – but there are interesting films in the line-up from the likes of Terry Gilliam and Sam Raimi too.
Tarantino’s bringing Inglourious Basterds to town, in news long anticipated and planned but now confirmed. Almodovar’s latest Penelope Cruz-starrer, Broken Embraces, will also play (if you really can’t wait, that’s already out in Spain), while Von Trier will bring his intriguing Antichrist to the Festival too (check out the trailer). Johnny To is back at the Festival (following a storming performance in 2005 for Election) with Vengeance, and Michael Haneke is bringing The White Ribbon, a black-and-white film about fascism in a German school in 1913. The opening film is Pixar’s Up, which was already announced, but now we know that the Festival will close with Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky, Jan Koenen’s film that’s one of two competing Chanel biopics, with Anne Fontaine’s Audrey Tautou-starrer lagging behind suddenly. Brits-wise, Ken Loach is bringing his footballing drama Looking For Eric (starring, among others, Eric Cantona!) and Andrea Arnold is bringing Fish Tank after winning the Jury Prize in 2006 for her debut film Red Road. Ang Lee will premiere Taking Woodstock there, after a last-minute screening convinced organisers to include it. Liev Schreiber, Emile Hirsch and Jeffrey Dean Morgan star in that. Jane Campion brings Bright Star, about the poet Keats and his love affair with his next-door neighbour, with Ben Whishaw and Abbie Cornish. Korea’s well represented with Park Chan-Wook bringing Thirst, about a man of faith turned into a vampire by a failed medical experiment, and Bong Joon-Ho (of The Host) bringing Mother to the Un Certain Regard section, about a mother’s search for the killer who framed her son. Out of competition screenings include Terry Gilliam’s much-anticipated The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus and Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell. The full line up is below, with the Director’s Fortnight selection due to follow in a week or two. 52 films from 32 countries will be screened during the Festival, with 46 of those world premieres. The Festival runs from May 13 to 24. Competition: Pedro Almodovar – Broken Embraces Un Certain Regard Bong Joon Ho – Mother Closing Film Jan Kounen – Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky Out of Competition Robert Guediguian – L’Armee Du Crime Midnight Screenings Stephane Aubier and Vincent Patar – A Town Called Panic Special Screenings Anne Aghion – My Neighbor, My Killer |

GLOBAL – French film actress Audrey Tautou, famous for her role in Amelie, has become the muse in a Chanel No. 5 film, directed by Jean Pierre Jeunet.
While in the past, Chanel No. 5 commercials ran on TV and in the cinema, this is the first time a Chanel marketing campaign has kicked off on the internet, launching online globally on 5 May 2009.
Chanel No. 5 perfume is described as sensual, intimate, luxurious, and the new film portrays No. 5 women of today as serene, enchanting and free.
The brand is renewing its campaigns to appeal to younger consumers who are unaware of No. 5.

Hey everyone, I put up a new layout here at audrey-tautou.org. Hope you guys like it!
Hello everyone! :)
As you probably have noticed, there will be a new owner for Audrey-Tautou.org. Her name is Michelle and I am very certain that the site will be in good hands.
I’ve thought a while about what to do with the website and I think that it’s for the best that I leave it to somebody else. My life keeps me very busy right now and I didn’t want to neglect the site and therefore you fans and visitors. It have been fantastic three years and I had a lot of fun with Audrey-Tautou.org, I hope you did too.
I want to thank everyone who contributed to the site, especially those who did so regularly. Thanks also to my affiliates and partner sites, especially to Cassie and DeeDee.

Take care everyone!
Yours Manila
Hey everyone, my name is Michelle and I’m the new owner of audrey-tautou.org. I have lots to add so keep checking back!
There has not been any news about Audrey lately, that’s why there were no updates in the last couple of days :) However, I have a little request to all the fans who happen to own the “Hors de Prix” DVD and/or the “Ensemble, c’est tout” DVD. I’d really like to upload caps of those two movies to the gallery, but I don’t own the DVD. So, if there is anyone who has the time to cap those movies for me, please feel free to email me at manila@audrey-tautou.org :)
So, 2007 is nearly over – Wow, what a year! Especially as a fan of Audrey I think 2007 was a great year with “Hors de Prix” being released internationally and of course the huge success of “Ensemble, c’est tout“. Let’s hope that will see Audrey on the big movie screen in 2008, too :)
Till then… I want to wish all the visitors and affiliates of this site a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008!
