    Well, Fahrenheit 9/11 won the Palme d'Or last year, so it's not like Cannes is some sort of bastion of quality filmmaking.

    Given that Lucas has completed "Star Wars III", he has plenty of time on his hands. Do you suppose that he would lend a hand to save "Enterprise"?

    It badly needs better scripts and actors.

    Agreed. I've seen shows on Community Television that are more coherently edited than Moore's "films."
