Tim Burton Named Cannes 2010 Jury President

Allan Ford September 14, 2011 3 comments
Tim Burton to head 2010 Cannes film festival jury Tim Burton has been named as the head of the jury for the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. Burton is no stranger to the Croisette. The American filmmaker, whose credits include “Batman,” “Edward Scissorhands,” Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street” and “Charlie And The Choclate Factory,” was a member of the Cannes jury in 1997 and on the short film panel in 2006.
“After spending my early life watching triple features and 48-hour horror movie marathons, I'm finally ready for this,”
Burton said in a statement to be released Tuesday.
“It's a great honour and I look forward, with my fellow jurors, to watching some great films from around the world. When you think of Cannes you think of world cinema. And, as films have always been like dreams to me, this is a dream come true.”
Gilles Jacob, the Cannes president, said in a statement to be released Tuesday that choosing Burton is a breakthrough step — and a way to liven up Cannes' beachfront avenue, La Croisette.
“It's the first time an artist whose origins are in animation will preside over the jury of the Festival de Cannes. A filmmaker with a heart of gold and silver hands, Tim Burton is first and foremost a poet. He's a magician of visual delights who turns the screen into a faery wonder. We hope his sweet madness and gothic humour will pervade the Croisette, bringing Christmas to all. Christmas and Halloween!”
The 63rd Cannes festival will be held May 12 to 23. The rest of the jury will be announced later.

    Congratulations Mr. Tim Burton well deserved bravo three cheers for Tim Burton. A tribute to Vincent Price follows. Way back in late 70’s early 80’s of the 20th century I and me mate had the privilege of meeting and shaking hands with the Master on 5th Ave in Manhattan it was a brilliant Saturday morning we recognized Vincent in a storefront glass window pane. Our eyes and hands meet Vincent’s hand matched his grin both a mile wide his eyes sparkled divine. We will never forget it was a little brisk perhaps in autumn I remember seeing some leaves that had fallen. We spoke briefly then it was on our way with a lasting grin. What a lovely way to start our day when we happened to meet say hi to Vincent Price a privilege we will never forget. As a family we grew up with Tim Burton’s films especially happy and fond of the classic Pee Wee’s Big Adventure 1985 am married to a Captain Carl since 83 of the 20th Century. Batman 1989 22 years young will be a classic in 2014 oh my. A tribute to Tim Burton and Charles Lutwidge Dodgson follows.Today Wednesday January 27, 2010 Charles Lutwidge Dodgson would have been 178 years old being he was born on January 27, 1832 in Daresbury Cheshire England UK. His Novels Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass were written by a lecturer author of Mathematics pseudonym Lewis Carroll. Brilliant Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter transports us back to our youth our imagination is ignited through the directing expertise of Tim Burton. Magnificent Helena Bonham Carter The Red Queen regal wide eyed full of pride justified, Realist Anne Hathaway becomes a beautiful White Queen royally portrayed with dignity. Tim Burton gathers all of our childhood favorites they actually come alive thru amazing 3D animation and voices provided by Stephen Fry The Cheshire Cat permanent grin meow, Michael Sheen The White Rabbit on time, Christopher Lee The Jabberwock scary villain, Crispin Glover The Knave of Hearts tall, Alan Rickman The Caterpillar blue, Matt Lucas Tweedledee/Tweedledum humor , Timothy Spall the Bloodhound grounded, all loyal and lovable 3D creatures. Magical Mia Wasikowska Alice Kingsley and intriguing Johnny Depp’s Mad Hatter might sip tea with his best 3D friends March Hare Paul Whitehouse (voice), Dormouse Barbara Windsor (voice) perhaps Dodo Michael Gough (voice) will be there. Mystical Helena Bonham Carter The Red Queen royally conducts court with courtiers of course, henchmen, stable hands all present and accounted for. Johnny Depp the Mad Hatter performs brilliantly for the 7th time under the direction of Tim Burton Helena Bonham Carter for the 6th time magnificently practice makes perfect. Screenplay Linda Woolverton, alternate name Alice in Wonderland novel by pseudonym Lewis Carroll died January 14, 1898 he was 66 and thru his novels is alive and forever young thanks to Tim Burton Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter, Christopher Lee bravo generational 178 years young.

    i love you!
    Tim Burton you are my favourite director and I believe the best the world has ever seen. I love every single one of your movies, Edward Scissorhands is my favourite, and the reason I love your movies so much I think is because they’re more than just movies they’re pieces of art especially the Batman movies. Alice in Wonderland was a beautifull film and i think its one of my favourites!
    Johnny Depp how are you so amazing at acting? Your my favourite actor and simply beautiful! You make your characters so believable! You are increadible in this film as always, and I commend the make-up crew and Colleen Atwood its such a transformation!!!
    Helena Bonham-Carter what can I say????? You are my favourite actress and are absolutly fantastic in every film you have ever been in, this movie is proof of that!
    Danny Elfman your music almost brings me to tears. The Edward Scissorhands music did. Its so moving! You are my favourite composer ever!
