...Gilles Jacob and Thierry Fremeaux, who choose the Cannes slate, seem to recognize this problem. That's why they pack their program with American items from Oscar-winning directors. This year Clint Eastwood brings Changeling, starring Angelina Jolie, and Woody Allen has Vicky Christina Barcelona, with Oscar-winner Javier Bardem, Oscar-nominee Penelope Cruz and Woody's latest muse, Scarlett Johansson. Steven Soderbergh is presenting the 4-1.2-hr. Che, with Benicio del Toro as the sexy South American insurrectionist...

This time last year, he said, no one thought that a black guy named Barack Obama was going to beat the best Democratic brand name, the Clintons. "The problem," he said, "is once you're a front-runner, it's the obligation of the candidates who are behind to try and whack you over the head." He acknowledged the furor over his former pastor's comments and his own San Francisco statements, but he said, there's something about his campaign "that's right, that's true." More pointedly...
