\n“The renowned Cannes Film Festival is upon us once more, but this year it carries a special significance to all you Sraffies world-wide. For a small glimpse of New Line’s adaptation to the first in our beloved trilogy is on show to a select few. So, I, Duncan Anderson, resident artwork designer, humbly took on the daunting task of travelling to Cannes. Where I endure topless beaches, high temperatures and exquisite cuisine to bring you an in depth report on The Golden Compass event.”<\/p>\n
“My first task was to acquire the ticket promised which would allow me into the screening. New Line had set up shop at the prestigious Majestic Hotel, so I headed over there first. After besting the guardian stationed outside, I walked astride the Red Carpet (slightly to the side like, and behind a fence) that led into the building. As I traversed within I brushed shoulders with producers, directors, actors and others of similar importance, till at last I beheld the New Line ticket office. Wherein I acquired the ‘hottest ticket in Cannes’ (according to the Daily Telegraph), then sat down at the bar with a bottle of Corona costing only \u00c3\u0192\u00e2\u20ac\u0161\u00c3\u201a\u00c2\u00a36!”<\/p>\n
“The first showing will take place at 7pm local time (6pm GMT), so I shall endeavour to bring you a report sometime tonight.”<\/p>\n
“Watch this space.”<\/p>\n
