Mischa Barton Project Hailed By Critics As The Best t.A.T.u. Movie At Cannes [All The Things She Said]
During this exciting and hectic Cannes season, some lesser-budgeted and hyped projects are at risk, like sand through a topless sunbather's cleavage, of tumbling between the cracks. We therefore take a moment to draw your attention to Killing Fields director Roland Joffe's latest film: You And I, starring Mischa Barton and Anton Yelchin. From it's IMDb plot synopsis: "Two teenage girls, Janie who is American and Lana who is Russian, fall in love after meeting at a t.A.T.u concert and are swept into a dangerous world of obsession, drug abuse and murrrrrderrrr." (Italics and dread-inducing consonant-extension ours.) The movie, originally titled Finding t.A.T.u., has been gathering dust on a shelf for several years (back when Yelchin would still consider acting opposite Barton in a movie about a sapphic Soviet pop group), and is at last ready for its coming out party.

Mischa, however, is not: "Mischa thought the film was awful and didn't want to be involved in the project," the Daily Mail reports, "And I'm told that the OC star was still on the Riviera, quaffing champagne while her film premiered. When asked why she wasn't at the premiere, Mischa snapped: 'I was never due to go.' So, why were you in Cannes, Mischa?" Well, nosey Daily Mail, if you must know—avoiding hotel balconies and beating up pool furniture, for starters.
