<p><br /> The stars of Woody Allen's latest film, 'You Will Meet A Dark Stranger', dazzled on the red carpet in Cannes on Saturday.<br /> </p><p><br /> Naomi Watts and Josh Brolin joined the director and fellow cast members Gemma Jones and Lucy Punch for the world premiere of the film in the French Riviera town.<br /> </p><p><br /> The movie is a wry take on two married couples and their respective mates.<br /> </p><p><br /> Anthony Hopkins and Jones play an older couple who have divorced because he wants to regain his youth. He takes up with a younger woman, while his ex-wife trains her eye on the future and becomes addicted to seeing a fortune teller.<br /> </p><p><br /> Watts plays their only daughter whose husband (Brolin) is a mediocre novelist. Both long to escape their marriage but when they do, they find that love relationships can often have bittersweet endings.<br /> </p><p><br /> What plays out on screen is a whimsical, ironic story of the sometimes happy, sometimes sad, conclusions people reach when they embark on new searches for love.<br /> </p><p><br /> The "tall dark stranger" is a nod not only to meeting a handsome lover who sweeps a person off their feet, but also the Grim Reaper waiting for us all at the end of our lives.<br /> </p><p><br /> The film is showing out of competition at the annual film fest.<br /> </p>
