Green with savvy: combing the Cannes-Cannes

babel-koji80707-7fd.jpgFor the most eclectic and discerning selection of cricket-song off the Croisette and Cannes, it'd be hard to beat David Hudson's clipping service over at GreenCine Daily. Today's top item: Alejandro González Iñárritu's multicultural Babel, starring Gael Garcia Bernal, Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett and ineffable everyman Koji Yakusho [pictured]. Among the snaps: The Reporter's Ray Bennett: "Tense, relentless and difficult to watch at times, Alejandro González Iñárritu's Babel is an emotionally shattering drama in which a simple act of kindness leads to events that pierce our veneer of civilization and bring on the white noise of terror." Other leaders: Flandres, Il Caimano, Shortbus, and Nuri Bilge Ceylan's' Climates. [Climates trailer here; Babel clip here.]
