Cannes (France), Jul 6 (EFE/EPA).- (Camera: Marco Álvarez San Román). Spike Lee showed up to the Cannes jury press conference reluctant to speak much but delivered biting statements as he denounced that Black people are still “being hunted down like animals” and the lack of morals of certain world leaders he called “gangsters.”FOOTAGE OF THE PRESS CONFERENCE.SOUNDBITES OF THE MEMBERS OF THE OFFICIAL JURY IN CANNES:Spike Lee (President of the Official Jury), in English:Kleber Mendonça Filho (member of the Official Jury), in English:Maggie Gyllenhaal (member of the Official Jury), in English:Mélanie Laurent (member of the Official Jury), in French:5.- "I dream for everyone that this is the first and last festival in which there is a debate about women. I don't know, I'm a bit naive. But if we could let the planet breathe and let women breathe at the same time and that there are no more debates, no more absurdities, and no crazy things then it would be wonderful. And it is wonderful that a festival proposes so many strong documentaries and films about ecology because, ultimately, cinema is a weapon that transforms people and makes them change".
(Newser) – Atlanta police have announced that they made an arrest in the shooting death of actor Thomas Jefferson Byrd. A man pokes his head out of a doorway and raises a hand while saying something that can't be heard on the video. He withdraws into the doorway and then emerges a few seconds later wearing red shorts with white stars and no shirt and with both hands in the air. Best known for his roles in Spike Lee films, Byrd was found dead around 1:45am Oct. 3 near his home in southwest Atlanta.
Acclaimed for his stage work and his roles in Spike Lee films, Thomas Jefferson Byrd has been murdered. He was 70 years old. Newser reports Byrd was found dead on Saturday at his home in Atlanta, Georgia. Police have remained quiet about the incident, but say Byrd was found with multiple bullets in his back. The Tony Award-nominated actor had appeared in several movies, including Lee's Clockers, Get on the Bus, and Chi-Raq. Byrd also appeared in the Ray Charles biopic Ray.
