Cannes Opens: "Actress Maggie Cheung, a frequent collaborator with Wong Kar wai, is among the jurors who will judge Wong's film and the other 21 titles in competition. She will be joined by actress Toni Collette from Australia, director and actress Maria de Medeiros from Portugal, director and actress Sarah Polley from Canada, director Marco Bellocchio from Italy, writer Orhan Pamuk from Turkey, director and actor Michel Piccoli from France, and director Abderramane Sissako from Mauritania. Filmmaker Stephen Frears will preside as the jury president." (Indiewire)
