Behind the Scenes

2013 Cannes Screening Schedule

I will be continually updating the following schedule so you know just what exactly I’ll be seeing/doing in Cannes as the 2013 Cannes Film Festival carries on.

I have a preview of the fest and my top ten most anticipated films online right here.

All screening times are Central European Summer Time (CEST) so if you want to know when I’ll be seeing them based on your time zone you’ll have to do the calculations.

NOTE: Films with an * are films I may or may not be able to attend for a variety of reasons and films that are listed twice are like that because I’m not sure which screening I will catch.

Tentative 2013 Cannes Screening Sked

I’ve started putting together my screening schedule for the 2013 Cannes Film Festival and it only includes one screening (The Congress) from the Directors’ Fortnight and/or Critics Week selection so it is still incomplete.

Right now it’s a list of 19 movies and I expect to see, at least, 23-24.

I have a preview of the fest and my top ten most anticipated going up tomorrow around 11:30 AM PST, but for now this is a good little primer. All screening times are Central European Summer Time (CEST) so if you want to know when I’ll be seeing them based on your time zone you’ll have to do the calculations.
