Shortbus, a U.S. romantic comedy set in a New York City sex salon, might have been the outrage of the festival, since it contained several no-fooling hard-core sex scenes. But John Cameron Mitchell's movie brims with so much fun and heartbreak that it upset few people and beguiled many. The densest concentration of film talent this year - 21 directors, including Alfonso Cuarón, Alexander Payne, Walter Salles, Sylvain Chomet and Tom Tykwer - collaborated on Paris, Je T'aime, an omnibus...

After years in the wilderness, the rival Tories have rallied behind Cameron, 39, who is stressing ecology, international development and the promotion of women and ethnic minorities instead of old Tory standards like immigrant bashing and tax cutting.
