MIRAMAX’S controversial film ”Dogma,” a religious satire not deemed funnyby some people, has been chosen as an offical entry at the Cannes FilmFestival. The French screened it and agreed with director Kevin Smith thatthe movie is a ”fantasy and love letter to both faith and God Almighty.” Of course, ”Dogma,” which stars Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Salma Hayek, AlanRickman, Chris Rock, Linda Fiorentino and Alanis Morisette, among others, isnot really a Miramax movie anymore. When objections to the film’s contentbegan to snowball, Bob and Harvey Weinstein personally bought up rights tothe film lock, stock and barrel for about $12 million. And they intend tosell it elsewhere as an indie. Director Smith will go to Cannes, as willAffleck, who’ll leave the Vancouver set of ”Reindeer Games” for the event.
