IT seems like only yesterday when we interviewed Brillante “Dante” Mendoza and took pictures of him on Cannes’ famous Croisette last year. Now, we just learned the happy news that Dante is returning to Cannes this year but this time, his entry, “Serbis,” is in the major event — the in-competition category. We are so proud that another Pinoy filmmaker is following the Cannes path blazed by the late great Lino Brocka.
Dante is in great company. Just ponder the list of filmmakers whose films are also in competition this year: Clint Eastwood, Charlie Kaufman, Wim Wenders, Walter Salles, Atom Egoyan, Jia Zhangke, Steven Soderbergh and Arnaud Desplechin. Mabuhay ka, Dante!
