Buyers and sellers in the film world will be pitching their latest titles in various meet and greet formats --the Cannes Market offers a bazillion different movie options. Some screenings are hush hush discreet, some are premieres from faltering divisions who could no longer keep the inventory and some are testing the market to find foreign buyers to pump more money back into the producer's pockets. If I were attending the market I'd be checking up on world preems of Marian Crisan's Morgen, Laurence Charpentier's Gigola and several of the promo reels, but those that should attract the most attention should be the following ten examples. - Buyers and sellers in the film world will be pitching their latest titles in various meet and greet formats --the Cannes Market offers a bazillion different movie options.
