Cannes News


Benicio Del Toro won the Cannes' Best Actor award for his portrayal of Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara. The film is directed by Steven Soderbergh and runs over four hours! Del Toro dedicated the award to Guevara for his bravery and legend left worldwide as an underground guerrilla hero. The movie has been hit by the critics as well though saying that it is too long for commercial release as well saying the Spanish subtitled documentary style filming would not help it in the long run either. Well it does sound quite interesting so I'm hoping it has some circulation!
