If I'm reading the schedule correctly, "The Changeling" will
have a morning screening* next Tuesday (May 20), but the big
red-carpet event will be at 7:30 local time. As mentioned in
the info that Amy posted from IFC, the camera is on 24 hours
a day, but there are hosts describing the action when an
evening premiere is about to happen.
* The schedule says "8.30-12.00" on one line, and "19.30" on
the next line. Anyone more familiar with Cannes screenings
than I am, please feel free to clarify. At least I'm confident
about the 19.30 part.

This is rather confusing without the full schedule for Changeling
(listed below).
The 8.30-12:00 (8:30 am - 12:00 pm) is for the press. The 19.30 (7:30
pm) is Official Screening.

is coming up today. It's now just before 6:00 p.m. in Cannes
(just before 9:00 a.m. here in California), and crowds are
starting to line the red carpet area.
IFC's Cannes Cam page (www.ifc.com/cannes) says they start
the red-carpet commentary about 45 mins. before the film
starts, so that would be about 9:45 a.m. PDT. Unfortunately,
that's just when I have to leave for yoga class. :-( With
luck, they'll post the show on the website in a day or two,
but meanwhile, any of you who get to watch it live, please
post a report on whom they interview and what they say!

Unfortunately, I missed this when it played.
The "Photocall - Interview : The Changelling" clearly shows JMS at the
very beginning.

Press conference : The Changeling - I could not get the video to load,
but I could hear JMS's voice.

You may wish to recommend the picture, so it will be easier for other

So far there is no picture of JMS in a tux.

Under "MORE RED CARPET VIDEO" there a links to red carpet interview.
If we are luck, they will have an archive of Changeling tomorrow or
Thursday.
I thought I saw someone exiting the theater that looked like JMS, but
I could not say for certain. So we still do not have a picture with
JMS in a tux. The quest continues. :-)

Strictly speaking, it's not incorrect. But I'm sure that was not what they
meant.

I saw the elusive JMS in a tux on Entertainment Tonight for about half
a second.

Amy,
I would not have notice if you had not pointed this out. :-)
It is amazing that Joe is better known internationally as an actor
than a screenwriter.

Long live the switching guy. I took a minute to look at the clip with Joe on
the red carpet and the poor guy had to be staring into 100's camera lenses.
Hope he enjoys the limelight.

I checked the Red Carpet video. JMS is at 22 minutes. I did a screen
capture, so this is the best so far of JMS in a tux.

As Christian pointed out earlier, Getty Images has some good
photos from the photo call and the red carpet. If you search
for "Straczynski" on their website, you'll see a still photo
(it was the first one in the search results when I did it)
of the same four people who are in that screen capture.

Nice!
By the way, I checked out the red carpet video on IFC's Cannes Cam, too. JMS
actually shows up at the 22:45 mark, and the funny thing is that the
commentator says at that moment -- and for those who haven't seen the video,
it helps to be looking at Elenopa's picture so you'll get why this is amusing
with the visual:
"...and there we see Clint with Brian Grazer..."
Poor guy, standing in the background, it's like they don't even see him!
It's okay, JMS -- _we_ saw you. :-)

That's a great illustration of the Hollywood heirarchy. It looks like
JMS is holding the umbrella over Brian Grazer. <g>
