So it Be… Maybe

The 61st Cannes International Film Festival met for 12 days, from 14 to 25 May 2008 in Cannes, France.

The Feature Films Jury included a number of international film figures, actors, directors and authors. American actor Sean Penn served as its president this year.

This year, the highly coveted Palme d’Or, awarded to the Best Director, went to Argentinean film director Lucrecia Martel for her thriller, La Mujer Sin Cabeza (The Headless Woman). Film award prediction: Lucrecia Martel is the winner of the Palme d’Or award at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival.

The Palme d’Or trophy is a 24-carat palm mounted on the finest crystal. The jury awarded a number of prizes, including best screenplay, best actor, and best actress.

So it be? Maybe . . .
