Kate Beckinsale Learns the Do’s and Don’ts of Being a Cannes Festival Juror

Post Categories: News

Found an awesome article about Kate and her experience so far as a juror at the Cannes Film Festival.

On the drizzly red carpet outside Cannes’ black-tie opening night party, red-suited attendants held umbrellas over celebrities’ heads as they made their way into the packed ballrooms of the Hotel Majestic. Inside, by a heaping dessert table, Benicio del Toro chatted in a corner with Gael Garcia Bernal, Tim Burton told us the Cannes experience had been “a strange trip” already, and a conspicuous scrum of tuxedo-ed bystanders pretended to not be staring at Kate Beckinsale, Croisette-glamorous in a short gold dress and a sweeping updo. We spoke with the Cannes competition jury member about her approach to judging, and she recalled her first time at Cannes, when she “wore steel-toe-capped Dr. Martens on the red carpet” and just hoped she “didn’t have stains” on her clothes.

Is there a certain type of film you’re hoping to promote here at Cannes?
What’s been very nice from the beginning is that Tim’s been very clear that none of us are going in with an agenda. We’re not looking for a political film, necessarily — or anything. We’re all looking forward to going in and seeing what it is. That’s what’s nice about the group — it’s only been two days, but so far nobody seems to have a really strong agenda. Everyone’s waiting to be surprised and moved. (Click here to read more…)

Cannes Film Festival – “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps” Premiere

Post Categories: Events, Gallery

One word: STUNNING!

OMG, that’s all I can say right now. No words can describe at the sheer beauty that I have just witnessed.

Our beloved Kate attended the premiere of Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps at the Cannes Film Festival. Kate was certainly looking like a goddess today in that wonderful dress and her hair and make up that made her look like a classic beauty from the 1940s, with a modern twist. I have uploaded over 100 HQ & MQ photos from the premiere to the gallery. I must say that this is one of my favorite looks, well deserving of being featured in our style page.

I have more Cannes goodies for all of you! After attending the Jury Photocall, Kate along with the rest of the members of the jury attended the Opening Night Premiere of Robin Hood. Kate is looking stunning in a light blue dress, with her hair up and amazing earrings. She always knows how to accessorize, doesn’t she? For now I have uploaded 50 MQ photos from the event, as more become available they will be added to the gallery.
