American actor Brad Pitt will be heading off to Cannes with his much-anticipated movie Inglourious Basterds. Pitt, 45, will be attending the festival with writer/director Quentin Tarantino, who has entered the movie into the prestigious Palm D'Or competition, reports Fox News.
Tarantino's World War II action film has been described as Pulp Fiction meets The Dirty Dozen, with Pitt leading a team of Jewish-American commandos into battle with the Nazis. The director had won the Palm D'Or, the festival's prize for best picture, in 1994 for Pulp Fiction. The Cannes Film Festival runs from May 13 to May 24.
