Peter Chan's American Dreams in China has reportedly had its Chinese release pushed back from April 16th to May 15th to coincide with the festival. The report is a little confusing since it claims it'll have a "world premiere" at Cannes, which is impossible since the 15th is the opening day and Gatsby has that slot. My guess is it'll screen on the 16th or 17th, which would provide lots of coverage in the Chinese press leading into the weekend. I'd say the chances of it being a competition title are very slim, but Chan has had an out-of-competition slot before (Wu Xia).

Taiwan is still the 10th from what I know. When did it get moved to the 17th?

Alright people, here's the thread for the biggest movie festival in the world that is once again held in May in Cannes, France. Steven Spielberg has been announced as the head of the Main Competition Jury, and Oscar-nominee Jane Campion leads the Cinefoundation and Short Film juries.
