This year, 45 countries are represented at the festival, which starts Friday night and runs for the next two weeks.The new film from Todd Haines is called, "May December," which takes its name from the expression commonly used to refer to a relationship between a young person and someone much older.Twenty years later they are married with children. Then, an actress played by Natalie Portman arrives to study the older woman for her next movie role.
Films about real people. A musical "Maestro," a builder of fast cars named "Ferrari," and "Priscilla" the wife of the late Elvis Presley. "We've always been a festival that attempts to sum up the year in cinema: to try and make the case for why cinema is a vital art form," said Dennis Lim, Artistic Director.
"The point of this film was to tell a story that hadn't been told often, and in counterpoint to the Elvis story which has been told countless times," Lim said."So how long do we have to do this for? Oh, we have to build a very strong connection," the trailer for "Maestro" says.
