Cannes is absolutely>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> but the Oscars selection virtually always has at least 2-3 great films worth seeking out and it gives you an idea of how Hollywood is evolving. I think there's value on catching up on the nominations. It's not like they're must see films, but I wouldn't say the same for Cannes either.
