Filmed over three years, this documentary profiles Lloyd Kaufman, founder of the low-budget horror film company Troma Films, as he and his enthusiastic employees attend the Cannes Film Festival to sell their movies internationally. Holed up in a hotel suite, the Troma team conducts meetings with distributors and the press during the day, while their boisterous behavior annoys other guests. Crashing parties and press junkets, the crew uses their cunning to cheaply gain attention and publicity.
All the Love You Cannes! is a 2002 documentary film directed by Lloyd Kaufman.
The film documents Troma Entertainments annual pilgrimage to the Cannes Film Festival in order to take on what they describe as "the elitist media conglomerates" and features interviews with Quentin Tarantino and Claude Chabrol.
Troma are currently working on a follow-up to this movie, entitled Occupy Cannes.
Known for what must be the cheapest and cheesiest of the indie film world, Troma films takes on Cannes with gallons of fake blood, the Tronettes, and numerous hijinks by an uncontrollable group of volunteer Troma fans, costumed, naked, and did I mention covered with blood? While any publicity is good publicity, the low budget Troma films must wonder what this will do to their reputation. And I think they're thinking, woohoo!
