It looks like love is the theme of this year's Cannes Film Festival. Or at least it's the theme of the poster.

The poster for the 2013 Cannes Film Festival has been released and it features Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman, photographed during the shooting of 1963's aptly titled "A New Kind of Love," by Melville Shavelson.

The press release for the poster said that it chose this image as an homage to Newman, and his love for Woodward: "For the Festival it is a chance both to pay tribute to the memory of Paul Newman, who passed away in 2008, and to mark its undying admiration for Joanne Woodward, his wife and most favored co-star."

It continues: "The poster evokes a luminous and tender image of the modern couple, intertwined in perfect balance at the heart of the dizzying whirlwind that is love. The vision of these two lovers caught in a vertiginous embrace, oblivious of the world around them, invites us to experience cinema with all the passion of an everlasting desire."

Well, when you put it that way, apportez sur le cinema.

The festival runs from May 15-26.

Tell us: What do you think of the poster? Were they just the best couple ever?

A heartfelt comment: What a Grand Gentleman and such an Exquisite Lady. His words still ring in my ears when he spoke about why he was never into anyone other than his Grand Lady, He stated, "Why have stray hamburger in the street when you have filet Mignon at home?" Well stated, Dear missed friend of all mankind, your great marks on the world love on after you along with my everlasting respect. Sending love to your Dearly Beloved Joan and Family. May your good influence always be with us. You are sorely missed and there will never be another!

As a Vietnam era vet, I am appalled and disgusted that CBS allowed the airing of The Amazing Race in Hanoi. Using the B52 memorial in Hanoi as a clue box backdrop, and other segments promoting the Communist regime is absolutely deplorable. During Memorial Day ceremonies the words "Lest we forget..." remind us of lost and maimed loved ones of all conflicts involving the men and women of our armed services. I guess you forgot.

The silence of this network is deafening and incriminating.

My wife and I have looked forward to watching The Amazing Race weekly. No more. This time you have gone too far.
