The watching brief
Article Abstract:
American films won at the Cannes film festival in 1989, 1990 and 1991. 'Howard's End' with Emma Thompson and 'The Long Day Closes' directed by Terence Davies are the UK entries for the 1992 festival. Marcel Carne is making his first film in 15 years, 'Mouche', and showing an audio-visual slide show in Europe. A new 'Pink Panther' film and a new 'Inspector Clouseau' film starring the Italian Roberto Benigni are directed by Blake Edwards. David Lynch entered 'Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me,' related to the television series. Cannes is placing more emphasis on television coverage than on newspaper publicity.

Article Abstract:
UK and US films are among the most popular films currently being shown at the 1996 Berlin Film Festival. They include 'Richard III,' adapted from the widely praised 1989 National Theatre production and starring Ian McKellen, 'Nixon,' which stars Anthony Hopkins and gives an almost melancholy portrayal of the life and times of former US president Richard Nixon, and 'Sense and Sensibility,' starring Emma Thompson. There are few top class films from the rest of the world.

Half Roman orgy, half sacred rite
Article Abstract:
The Cites-Cines 2 exhibition currently being held at La Defense, Paris, France, is nominally part of a programme of events marking the centenary of film-making. However, it takes an unusual approach, being designed as the attempt of an archaeologist working in the year 3000 to reconstruct life in the 20th century using only film material. The exhibition is thus a vision of things to come, rather than an overview of a century of film-making.
