 CANNES, France (AP) - Cannes celebrated its 60th edition Wednesday by inviting a screen newcomer to open the film festival: singer Norah Jones, playing a heartbroken lover in a role that forced her to cry on command and spend hours smooching co-star Jude Law.
Their movie, "My Blueberry Nights," by director Wong Kar-wai, was the first screening in an 11-day fete of cinema, parties and dealmaking.
The festival has an extra dash of glitter this year: Stars slated for appearances include George Clooney, Sharon Stone, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Al Pacino and Angelina Jolie. Movies on Cannes' lineup range from "Ocean's Thirteen" to Michael Moore's "Sicko," to films from Russia to Mexico to South Korea.
