Ep. 73 - More Cannes-tastrophes (The Brown Bunny / The Sea of Trees)
Manage episode 441677480 series 3455788
Today we welcome Letterboxd’s own Swartacus for the 2nd edition of our CANNES-TASTROPHES series. The Cannes film festival is the most prestigious of its kind in the world, and these films had premieres so disastrous that hundreds booed and even fled the theater. First up is Vincent Gallo’s scandalous 2003 art film THE BROWN BUNNY, which Roger Ebert famously declared the worst film in Cannes’ history (sparking a legendary feud with the director). Then we see whether that label REALLY applies to our second candidate, Gus Van Sant’s universally panned, Matthew McConaughey-starring mush THE SEA OF TREES.
