Film Festival of Short Films

Today was more or less very disappointing. I, once again, tried to wake up at 7:00am to catch a 8:30am premiere of Elle after going to bed at 4:00am that morning. Lol no. I ended up sleeping in until 12:00am. Me and Beth headed to Cannes and started souvenir shopping and walking around the Palais. We went to the macaroon shops and I couldn't believe my eyes. There were deserts of every type in that shop. They had little chocolate cameras and chocolate high heels. They even ad chocolate lipstick! It was adorable and I will go back before I leave.

After killing some time at the Am Pav, we went to go see the short films. There was about 3 hours of short films with names I cannot remember. Some of the films were just absolutely terrible to watch, and others were very funny. I think these filmmakers just wanted to make movies about things that people don't like to talk about. Things such as premature babies dying and 16 year old porn stars. More or less the films were well done, I'm just not so sure how I feel about the plots. 

One good thing about today is that I found out the myth of Sunday is not a myth. There will be movies replaying tomorrow which is a huge relief. I really want to catch Tony Erdman, The Hand Maiden, and possibly Elle. Maybe I will get up in time, maybe not. We will just have to wait and see!
