Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's Sin City has been entered into the competition for the prestigious Palme d'Or, the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival.  It's one of only six North American movies to be so honored.  Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, and Jessica Alba are expected to attend the European premiere, according to the Hollywood Reporter. 

 

Star Wars:  Revenge of the Sith will have its world premiere on May 15th at the festival.  Although it's not entered in competition, this is a nice showing of respect for Lucas' craft and a great way to kick off the worldwide release of the film.
