Roman Polanski's "Based on a True Story" has been added to the Cannes lineup. It will be playing "out of competition," which means tamper your expectations, this wasn't good enough to be in competition, but good enough to be playing at Cannes. Although, last year, Steven Spielberg's misbegotten "The BFG" played out of competition ...
Also Ruben Ostlund's "The Square" was added and WILL be plaiyng in competition.
The Wrap has like this:
The 2017 Cannes Film Festival has added seven more films to its lineup, including Roman Polanski‘s “D’après une histoire vraie” (“Based on a True Story”), Cannes organizers announced on Monday.
Other additions include films by Ruben Ostlund, Santiago Mitre and Barbet Schroeder.
Polanski’s film stars Eva Green and Emmanuelle Seigner in the story of a writer who becomes involved with an obsessive fan. The film will screen out of competition at Cannes.
Ostlund (“Force Majeure”) will be part of the main competition with “The Square,” starring Elisabeth Moss and Dominic West.
