May I present to you the poster for the 62nd Cannes Film Festival…
The poster was created by Annick Durban and was inspired by Michelangelo Antonioni’s “L’avventura,” which won the festivals jury prize in 1960. In all honesty, I have a bit of a problem with the composition of this version: I think it’s a beautiful image, and one with quite iconic appeal, but the half border immediately draws the gaze out of the top right of the image, and away from the important elements.
What does everyone think?

Elegance!
Minimal, toned down, recessionistic (the next big thing).
I Host the Sundance Film Festival After Dark and have seen many different film festival posters….This one is just gorgeous! Congratulations Cannes 2009!

John Robert Holbrook is a star! I have watched him in action during Sundance Film Festival for years and he really needs to be acting in films. He has a magnetic personality, great body and perfect timing!

My children adore J.R. Holbrook’s book “GINGERBREAD JIMMI – Magical Storybook” ! My children are very excited for Disney/Pixar to do the animated Gingerbread Jimmi movie to their favorite book!
PS. You need to request the Gingerbread Jimmi theme song on your local radio stations during christmas….it is amazing
I bought JR Holbrook’s cologne ( John Robert Holbrook – Pharaoh ) and it is just amazing! I receive compliments every day! I guess the designer only makes 1000 bottles every year and when they are sold that is it. I also read that Robert Redford, Bill Clinton and Princess Diana’s Boys wear this fragrance. WOW!

The *HOT* John Robert Holbrook poster of his male model laying face down on a couch (Naked) wearing only the Holbrook socks is a masterpiece. I received one during the 2009 Sundance Film Festival and I now need more for gifts. Does anyone know where this poster can be purchased? I was told Prints Plus and allposters.com but they are out. HELP!
