Flying colours … Gimme the Loot, grand jury award winner for the best narrative feature at SXSW, will screen at Cannes 2012
Seven films have been belatedly added to the official lineup for Cannes 2012 – but big hitters such as Woody Allen, Paul Thomas Anderson and Terrence Malick seem destined not to have their latest films at the festival.
The British anti-waste documentary Trashed, featuring Jeremy Irons and directed by Candida Bray, will join the special screenings programme, while The Sapphires, an Australian second world war musical about an Aboriginal girl group, and Maniac, the Elijah Wood-starring serial killer film, have both been given late-night slots in the midnight screenings section.
The Un Certain Regard selection has added three new titles: the SXSW award-winning graffiti yarn Gimme the Loot, Bosnian director Aida Begic's Djeca, and Gilles Bourdos' Renoir, about the legendary artist and his film-maker son.
Finally, the Cannes classics has programmed Hungarian director György Pálfi's clip-montage Final Cut (Hölgyeim és uraim) as its closing film.
The Cannes film festival starts on 16 May.
