The absence of Todd Haynes "I'm Not There from the Cannes Film Festival lineup was the big surprise early this morning as I surveyed the fest's official selection. Being so anxious to see the movie, I shuddered to think that it could have been rejected by Cannes. Well, as it turns out that's not the case.

I emailed someone very close to the movie today and was told that the film is simply not finished and wasn't even shown to Cannes festival brass. Instead, its a safe bet that "I'm Not There" will be on the fall festival circuit...
