Cannes has been going down hill for many years in terms of visitor experience. With so many other film festivals set in equally beautiful settings, isn't it about time the film industry woke up to the exorbitant facilities, accommodation, food and transport costs.

Of course the producers or more accurately their investors are the ones who are funding this jamboree with the distributiors just off setting these costs as expenses.

Perhaps Screen should spark a global debate about what are the most cost effective and location friendly market/festival spots during the calender year
