USUALLY TAKEN OVER by the women of Hollywood in their finery, the red carpet of Cannes was last night overrun by men.
Out in force for the premiere of Brad Pitt’s latest offering Killing Them Softly, some of the film industry’s biggest names donned their tuxes and headed for the south of France.
The movie, an adaptation of a George V Higgins crime novel, is in the running for the prestigious Palme d’Or.

Both Pitt and director Andrew Dominik defended the use of violence in the film, stating it was a part of life and an accepted part of the gangster world.
There was only love at the Palais de Festival last night though:
