From the "On The Scene" Archives:
iPOP at the 2003 Cannes Film Festival
by Brian Brooks
The indie and specialty community were in Cannes tracking the latest films and socializing at the hot parties and festival in spots. Film festival parties, like those for Toronto, the Hamptons or Telluride, were a favorite spot for hanging out, as was the Grand Hotel after midnight. The bar's terrace hosted a who's who of indie producers, festival heads and filmmakers nightly during the event. We've captured just a few of the faces in this Cannes edition of iPOP.
