Parece que los de "The Hollywood Reporter" entendieron mal el Palmarés de Un Certain Regard. Acá va el de "Variety", que espero sea el correcto: ganó la película griega "Dogtooth".
In a rare triumph for Greek cinema at Cannes, Yorgos Lanthimos’ unsettling repression drama "Dogtooth" took the top Un Certain Regard Prize Saturday at Cannes.
The triumph of "Dogtooth" - yet another dysfunctional family tale which finally flares into violence at an edition of Cannes which has had a handful - was something of a turn-up for the books.
Turning on three teen children who are kept almost completely cut-off from the world by their parents, "Dogtooth" drew sympatgetic reviews.
But this year’s Un Certain Regard boasted films from a bevy of name international auteurs - Korea’s Bong Joon-ho, Iran’s Bahman Ghobadi, Romania’s Cristian Mungiu and Corneliu Porumboiu, Japan’s Hirokazu Kore-eda - whose films grabbed a lot more attention.
And a bevy of movies had generated warm buzz during the festival. Three of these took all the other Un Certain Regard kudos.
Porumboui’s much-admired "Police, Adjective," about a cop’s reluctant surveillance of a pot-smoking teen, won the Un Certain Regard Jury Prize, adding to a Fipresci award earlier Saturday as best film in the sidebar.
Two other praised films shared a Special Prize: French director Mia Hansen-Love’s "Father of My Children," a painful record of the suicide of an indie producer; and Bahman Ghobadi’s section opener "No One Knows About The Persian Cats," a shot-on-the-hoof tale of two budding musicians in Iran’s rebellious, repressed but vibrant underground rock-music scene, a film which marks a change of direction for the helmer.

¿Ganó esa que era el peor promedio del Peacock-poll? Increíble. Para mí que el alemán estaba en el jurado ese.
Quintin, habla del aleman, pero Arroba de Critica, es un extremista... da un 10 o un 0... para ese no hay terminos medios...
Igual mañana seguro los primeros premios se lo llevan Von Trier y Noe, asi que, duerman con las conciencias tranquilas...
Ahora, me extraña que haya tenido peor recepcion Coixet. Esta bien, que no es la mejor directora del mundo ni nada de eso. Pero vi el trailer de la de Von Trier y me esperaba la recepcion que tuvo, lei que Noe presentaba una pelicula de 2 horas y media y me imagine lo mismo... Esperaba algo un poquito mejor de Coixet, especialmente porque el trailer, aunque da la sensacion de ser pretenciosa y pomposa dramaticamente, me atrapo un poco. Honestamente, ahora tengo curiosidad de verla.
Saludos
