Buzz Break: Cannes Goods

· When your Cannes Film Market project has gone all out on a cast including Chris Kattan, Pamela Anderson, David Spade, Chazz Palminteri and Nicky Whelan, the last thing you have a budget for is an original poster.

· The festival's Directors' Fortnight sidebar awarded its top prize to Fabienne Berthaud's Pieds nus sur les limaces, which somehow translates to Lily Sometimes.

· Welcome back, Lodge Kerrigan! The LAT has some questions for you.

· Dear actors: Stop licking your fingers onscreen, or else your characters are dead to me. Love, Jeff Wells.

· In other news, Naomi Campbell might be off to the Hague to testify in a war-crimes trial. No, not her own. Stop it.

· Finally, congratulations to former Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey, who has reportedly been selected to succeed Dan Glickman as MPAA president.

    For all the insane (and inane) movie bloggers out there, I'm glad Jeff Wells exists and is willing to speak his mind without giving a fuck about anything else.
    Like a true Maverick.
    (Top Gun kind, not tea bag kind. Although some might say those go hand in hand...)
