Cannes lineup announced for 2011

Terrence Malick’s “The Tree of Life” will screen in competition for the Palme d’Or at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. The announcement in Paris on Thursday ends months of speculation about whether the Austin director’s film, starring Brad Pitt and Sean Penn, would screen in Cannes.

The big question now is: Will Malick show up for the traditional press conference that follows the press screening at the Palais? Malick does not give interviews, and he is not accustomed to taking questions about any of his movies from a crowd of international critics. It’ll be interesting to see what happens in mid-May, when the festival kicks off.

Other films in the official selection are:

“Midnight in Paris,” directed by Woody Allen, the opening-night film that will screen out of competition.
