The Cannes Film Festival is in full swing and this week you can see a French film selected for the “Palme d’or” on the screens of eleven cinemas with “L’Amour et les Forets” but “The Little Mermaid” also does well in terms of screen presence. As usual, the programming for the Festival period remains weak because many films are scheduled to hit screens after Cannes
