The 2008 Cannes film festival will go down in film history as the year with the Latin touch as Spanish-language movies, Latin themes and A-list celebs make waves at cinema’s largest showcase.
Eagerly-awaited Thursday by the 4,000-odd film critics attending the fest is star director Steven Soderbergh’s more than four-hour look at the world’s best-loved revolutionary, Ernesto “Che” Guevara.
Filmed in Spanish and starring Benicio Del Toro, the movie being presented in two two-hour parts marks a new departure for the director best known for his blockbuster gangster “Ocean’s” movies.”*
