Aug 30 #2 afternoon

We just got the preliminary program and while we do not know about all the people & films that will be here, we do know a few things.
The Festival honoree this year will be Marion Cotillard!  Magnifique!  She has a new film that will debut, Rust & Bone and this means she will definitely be here to introduce it! (You've probably seen her in Midnight in Paris, Contagion, and my favorite: La vie en rose. ).  So this news makes me tres content!
A few other films we know will be here:  Hyde Park on the Hudson with Laura Linney (so I assume she will be here this year---yipee) & Bill Murray.  It's billed as an "FDR drama." This one should be excellent & is getting a lot of attention.
Ken Burns new film, Central Park Five is here (a dark documentary about NY slaying).
Looks like there are a lot of titles they will not release for the next few days, so we'll wait  see.. .
It's mid afternoon, pouring rain & hail, thunder.  Hope the weekend isn't rainy.
