Cannes Film Festival May 18 Report: Sinfully Delicious

"Sin City," which has already received tons of critical praise, now faces the distinguished Cannes judges during its screening today. Directed by Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller, the film's cast (and the acting) kicks derrière: Bruce Willis, Benicio del Torro, Brittany Murphy, Clive Owen, Mickey Rourke, Elijah Wood and Jessica Alba. This black-and-white film with vignettes is the movie adaptation of the popular Frank Miller graphic novels.
