  • Portuguese director Manoel de Oliveira made his first movie in 1942, the year Casablanca came out, and he wasn't especially young at the time. This year, at 101, he returns to Cannes with a new film competing in the "Un Certain Regard" category, O Estranho Caso de Angelica, about a young Jewish photographer hired to take a staged, post-mortem portrait of the beautiful Angelica, the daughter of a prominent Catholic family. Because I fancy myself a cinephile, this is humiliating to admit: I couldn't stay awake through it. I have excuses—I hadn't slept on the flight over and was jet-lagged; it was a morning screening, the room was dark, and my seat was plush; the film was in subtitled Portuguese; individual shots lasted a minute on average and neither the camera nor the characters moved much; the film was scored to Chopin and other soothing classical piano standards; and the projection cut out at one point, a rare technical glitch at the normally well orchestrated festival.
