Festival de Cannes – Reel Talk

Today marks the first day of the 66th Annual Festival de Cannes 2013. This invite-only festival takes place in Cannes, France where a dozen films are screened in competition, with the winning film being offered theatrical distribution. Recognition at this highly prestigious and publicized film event is definitely a good look for anyone involved.

Taxi Driver, one of my all time favorite films, received the Palme d’Or (the golden palm or grand prize) which was presented to Martin Scorsese back in 1976 for best feature film. The film stars Robert De Niro and features Harvey Keitel and a teenage Jodie Foster. Taxi Driver is often cited by critics and audiences as one of the greatest films of all time. If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a list of reasons to convince you otherwise.

The track ‘Walking in the Rain‘ by DFD and Wax actually features a few sound bites from the film!

The Knocksteady fam would like to recognize this event with a commemorative release of our Reel Talk Tee. Peep Breezy rockin our new design! Only available until the last day of the festival (May 26)
