After a weekend of preparation, last nights trauma of packing, and a fair amount of not-so-glamorous queueing in airports, Joe Alvarez has arrived in Cannes with style.
At 1:15pm Joe text me to let me know that he was on the plane waiting for takeoff.
Managing to escape the dismal weather in London, he was greeted with some sunshine and an invitation to the Chopard party at the famous Martinez Hotel. The hotel towers over the Boulevard de la Croisette, the meeting place of celebrities, and has beautiful sea views. As I write this, the party is taking place on the roof top of the hotel and Joe is in amongst it all- witnessing a fabulous sunset, drinking pink champagne, nibbling canapes, and socialising with actors, actresses and directors.
Having already spoken to famous faces such as Tilda Swinton, who has starred in films such as 'The Chronicles of Narnia' and was nominated for a golden a globe following her performances in 'The Deep End', Joe is in agreement with many of the stars that this evening is the perfect warm up for the opening night tomorrow.
It all sounds very luxurious and this is just a few hours in... it's going to get even better from here on in.
Cheers Joe!
