Sisters Are Doing It for Themselves


Five members of the Cannes 2009 Jury: Sharmila Tagore, Robin Wright Penn, chairperson Isabelle Huppert, Asia Argento, Shu Qi. Isn't that a delightful picture? What a cool group of actresses. It's enough to make you proud of living in the year 2009. Whatever the problems of our time, it is unquestionably an era that embraces internationalism and empowerment to a greater extent than we have hitherto known. There is nothing wrong with feeling a little good about that.
