On to France, where the country seems to be going showbiz mad in preparation for this year's Cannes Film Festival, one of the world's leading annual cinema showcases, which kicks off this week.

　　At the moment, final preparations are under way in the glitzy coastal¹ resort of Cannes in south-east France, where Hollywood productions will compete alongside movies from across the globe in the film festival.
2012 is the 50th year after the death of Marilyn Monroe, and the festival organizers chose to honor the Hollywood goddess by selecting a photo of her blowing out a candle on a cake as the official poster of this year's Cannes Film Festival.
Nanni Moretti, the satirical Italian film-maker heads the jury panel of this year's festival, while famous directors David Cronenberg, Ken² Loach and Michael Haneke are among the 22 international film-makers vying³ for the Golden Palm Awards. The 65th Cannes Film Festival runs from May 16th to the 27th.
