Ocean's 13 & The Departed Director Martin Scorsese!!!

Oceans 13 and Martin Scorsese!

Another day to remember in Cannes!! A small group of us committed to getting tickets to the 11am premiere of Ocean’s 13! Bill got his ticket within the first 5 minutes. Finally an older couple came up and gave me a ticket and Mandy got one right after I did. The crowd to get in was CRAZY. But so worth it.

The movie itself I was pretty disappointed in. Nothing compares to Oceans 11. And for Paul Ruddle’s sake and request I will not spoil the ending, but I will say it’s disappointingly non-confrontational. In other words, everything falls into place too easily. Is it worth seeing? Yes, if you’ve been an avid Oceans fan…if not…I suggest you see the first two before seeing the third. I rate it a B….borderline B-.

After Oceans 13 we all headed over to pick up our VIP tickets to meet Martin Scorsese! WHAT A FANTASTIC CONFERENCE!!! I took twelve pages of notes which I am going to type up later tonight and post on here…for my loyal journalism followers.

Tonight I have finished (roughly) my two reviews due tomorrow on Savage Grace and A Mighty Heart.

THANK YOU JAKE for calling me this morning from Truck…even though I wasn’t quite conscious enough to talk coherently at 8am this morning after a late night last night. J

Ok…back to typing here!! Goodnight!
