On the first full weekend of the Cannes Film Festival, Rebecca Roberts checks in with Charles Ealy, an editor with the Austin (Texas) American Statesman, who travels to southern France every year for the festival.
Ealy talks about several movies showing there, including Heath Ledger's last film, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The movie was finished with Johnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell playing Ledger's character in dream sequences. Its director is Terry Gilliam, a Monty Python grad who is known for huge, out-of-control flicks that people think are brilliant or messes or often both.
