Cannes 2011: the clapometer, part four

What's getting the thumbs going skywards and beachwards at this year's festival

Two jumping Croisettes and two stale croissants . . .

Lifts

In an effort to bring relief to their tired tootsies, Cannes delegates have taken to using service lifts. Saves time and gives a clandestine thrill.

Cosmic scenes

Both The Tree of Life and Melancholia feature planets drifting towards each other in lush slo-mo, while the best of Classic FM blasts out on the soundtrack.

Alex Reid

Is the cagefighter angling to be the next Jason Statham? Not only has the former husband of Katie Price been yacht-hopping, he also tweeted that he was dining with "Bruno Copplor". That'll be Coppola, dear.

America

No entry to the US pavilion unless you've got a special pass, yet elsewhere we are welcomed with open arms and free sweets. And Peter Fonda, rallying support for eco-doc The Big Fix, has emailed Obama, calling him a "traitor" over his handling of the Gulf oil spill.
