Just added pictures from “Che” Photocall in Cannes, today. And I simply can’t leave without tell that Rodrigo looks GORGEOUS in the looks he choose, in brown/green. Loved!

Sorry for my late in posting these. There’s a lot of new pictures from the latest days in Cannes Festival. Yesterday was the “Che” screening and Rodrigo was also there, with all the cast. We had, too, a Party for Leonera, a party for Che, and the Chophard Trophy. Added 42 pictures from all this events, with more to come.

Leonera (Argentina-South Korea-Brazil)
By JAY WEISSBERG to Variety.com

Situated somewhere between neo-realist study and standard women in prison pic, “Lion’s Den” too frequently wanders into common territories to make the material its own, though pic’s overall style and Martina Gusman’s bold lead have a great deal to recommend them. Confirming the superb compositional eye he revealed in “Born and Bred,” helmer Pablo Trapero creates a suitably enclosed world focused on an accused pregnant murderess through jail and childbirth, witnessing the development of mother and child as the rusty wheels of Argentinean justice creak slowly along. Modest arthouse play could ride the wave of Argentine cinema’s media attention.

“Lion’s Den” represents an adventurous non-Asian choice for Cineclick Asia’s co-production coin, joined with Trapero’s own company Matanza Cine and Walter Salles’ Videofilmes. Neither the picaresque comedy of Trapero’s popular breakthrough “Rolling Family” nor the melancholy meditation of “Born and Bred,” current offering is more a strongly sympathetic depiction of women serving time and raising kids behind bars. Obviously besotted with tykes himself, Trapero makes clear the problems stemming from cellblocks doubling as nurseries, but wisely skirts offering up elusive fix-alls.
