CANNES, FRANCE Not a long entry today. Mainly because it was a very long night. One of the nice things about coming to Cannes is the chance to see old friends from around the world and reconnect over a few drinks. For the first time since the judging began, I did that. Hello Gutter Bar. Hello 4 a.m. I won’t go into any details as it has no bearing on the show.

We did spend Thursday narrowing the list way down and awarding our first medals.
