The Cannes 2012 Film Festival has now drawn to close after 11 days of fascinating films, extraordinary films and even some rather terrible films.

HeyUGuys were there for most of the festival and in addition to the coverage on the site I have also been Tweeting some brief thoughts on the films I’ve seen @cskinner.

In addition to the major screenings I also made an effort to take in a few films that did not receive as much attention and I also made a point of checking out a few market screenings too in an effort to bring you all a broad idea of the films playing at Cannes 2012.

There are still a few more reviews to come but below you can read some of my quick thoughts on all the films I saw and also some short reactions to three footage presentations also shown at Cannes 2012.

Founded by Philippe Bober in the late 80′s, the Coproduction Office -  a Sales Agent/Production Company based out of Paris comes to Cannes with only one item in the Main Competition in a filmmaker they’ve repped before in Ulrich Seidl and his part one of the trilogy,  Paradise: Love. They’ve also got a restored print for Rossellini’s 1954 classic and of course, all eyes are on Cannes 2013 for the potential release of Dau by Ilya Khrzhanovsky.

Robert De Niro, Roman Polanski, Alfred Hitchcock and Roberto Rossellini top the bill of the Cannes Classics wing devoted to restored prints of old classics

The starriest sidebar at Cannes was unveiled today, with the likes of Robert De Niro, Roman Polanski, Jerry Lewis, Alfred Hitchcock and Roberto Rossellini topping the bill. They've all got films scheduled in the Cannes Classics wing devoted to restored prints of old classics, and created in 2004 "as the relationship between contemporary cinema and its own memory was disrupted by the advent of the digital age".

Thirteen features, two shorts, a mini-concert and four documentaries – all world premieres – are on the bill, including the previously announced restored and extended print of Sergio Leone's Once Upon a Time in America, which has been overseen by Martin Scorsese. Robert De Niro, Elizabeth McGovern and Jennifer Connelly, who star in the film, will attend, alongside the Leone family. »
