Xavier Dolan just can't stay away from the Cannes Film Festival.  Last year's Special Jury prize winner for “Mommy” thought he should have won the Palm d'Or and now he'll be part of the jury deciding that prestigious honor.  Oh, my.

The Cannes Film Festival announced the Jury today which also includes Guillermo Del Toro, Jake Gyllenhaal Sienna Miller, Rossy de Palma, Sophie Marceau, Rokia Traore and Jury presidents Joel and Ethan Coen.  That's quite a Hollywood contingent for Cannes most important clique.

Almost always political and rarely unanimous, the Cannes Jury was led by Jane Campion in 2014.  That group selected “Winter Sleep” as their Palm d'Or winner while many believed “Leviathan” or “Foxcatcher” deserved the honor.  

The Festival also announced its Director's Fortnight selections this morning.  This is the section of the festival where “Blue Ruin” made its debut over the past few years.  There are usually often one or two buzzed about Sundance premieres that cross the Atlantic for an international audience. This year “Dope” earns that honor.

Here are all of this year's Director's Fortnight films:
