Title: Best director @ Cannes 2001
Post by: brockly on May 25, 2003, 04:38:20 AM
Who won best director at Cannes in 2001? I remember hearing that Joel Coen won, but just the other day I read in some article that David Lynch won the award.

So who actually won?
I think Coen deserved it more

Clearly the best director at Cannes that year was David Lynch. He's one of the best directors out there and his film "Blue Velvet" and his most recent "Mulholland Drive" proves that.

Coens are fantastic directors, too. Very different from Lynch, but I'm a big fan of both.

Yeah, that tie couldn't have made me happier. They both deserve the kudos, in my opinion.
