Cannes 2010 Robin Hood

The Cast of Robin Hood are in the cannes' red carpet too.

The Cannes Film Festival 2010 began last night and it looks as though it may well be a rather flat festival if the opening night is anything to go by. The main event to get the 63rd festival underway was the showing of the latest soon to be released Universal blockbuster, Robin Hood.

The latest Robin Hood, or Russell Crowe playing Russell Crowe, was up for judgement in the main hall at the Palais but when the event itself and the after-party outshone the actual film, it was not a good sign. People who attended discussed how it received a lukewarm reception with “respectable” applause, according to latimes.com, and as any die-hard fan of these events can tell you “respectable’” applause is not what anybody involved in a film wants to hear.

Maybe if the film’s director, Ridley Scott, had been present the response would have been more enthusiastic, but who can tell. Still apparently the beach-side club party afterwards was a great success with medieval costumes, flowing champagne and obligatory fireworks thrown in to liven things up.

For more on this go to latimes.com. What are your first impressions of Russell Crowe playing Robin Hood? Do you think he’ll manage to become THE definitive Robin? Certainly from what we’ve heard about the premiere that seems doubtful but maybe you have other opinions? We’d be interested to hear your thoughts.

Opening of the "Festival de Cannes"

It was many actress like Ashwarya Rai :

She has become a fixture on the French Riviera over the years and Bollywood beauty Aishwarya Rai Bachchan did not disappoint onlookers at the 63rd Cannes festival when she walked the red carpet at the gala opening.

The 36-year-old actress who arrived minus husband Abhishek Bachchan wore a violet tulle and mousseline gown from Elie Saab.

With her hair done up in a pompadour updo, the actress walked the red carpet with fellow L'oreal spokesmodel, American actress Eva Longoria.

Rai is here to promote her much awaited film, Mani Ratnam'sRaavan, whose first look will be unveiled on May 17. Her co-stars including husband Abhishek and Tamil actor Vikram will attend the evening along with the filmmaker.

The bilingual work has been produced by Reliance Big Pictures and is slated for a June release. The former Miss World, has been a permanent Cannes attendee for many years, since her movie, Devdas screened at the Festival in 2002.

The festival which opened with the premiere of Ridley Scott's Robin Hood was awash with stars including the epic's lead pair Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett.

Academy Award wining Mexican actress Salma Hayek, who was part of the Festival jury along with India's Nandita Das in 2005, was also present.

British actress Kristin Scott Thomas played mistress of the opening ceremony introducing the President of the jury, American director Tim Burton, and the other members of his team, including India's Shekhar Kapur.

Thomas will also preside over the closing ceremony on May 23, when Burton will announce the prizes.
