 97 65th Festival De Cannes                                                                                                    Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts-starrer “The Impossible” at Cannes surprise screening  May 23, 2012 - 17:42 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - In a move that would amount to the Cannes Film Festival‘s very own clip reel of unfinished upcoming movies, a screening of footage from select films will take place in an official venue on Thursday, May 24, Deadline reported. Details are scarce, but pics that could be in the surprise pack include Juan Antonio Bayona’s The Impossible, the tsunami movie starring Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts, and Wong Kar Wai’s martial arts bio The Grandmasters. Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained and Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master might also be included, although the Weinsteins showed footage from those films on May 21. Other films are expected to be in the mix for what will be an hourlong showing that will be open to all accredited fest attendees. This is a new move for the festival and could drum up some extra heat. The screening, will take place at the Salle du Soixantième — the same venue where the roof was damaged by heavy winds the other day. Only this time, the festival will look to blow the roof off on purpose.  Top stories The creative crew of the Public TV had chosen 13-year-old Malena as a participant of this year's contest.
