Cannes 2011: the clapometer, part two

What's getting the thumbs pointing skywards and beachwards at this year's festival

Two in, two out

Boy actors

The young stars of the Dardenne brothers' The Kid With a Bike and Terrence �Malick's The Tree of Life gave this year's freshest �performances so far

Elizabeth Olsen

The twins' younger sister got admiring �reviews for �Martha Marcy May Marlene, in which she plays a woman fleeing an abusive cult. Bonus loyalty points for modelling clothes by Mary-Kate and Ashley

Eminences grises

Gus van Sant, a former Palme d'Or winner, has �delivered a dud in Restless. We don't see him �carrying off another �trophy this year

Bordellos

Curious that two films, Sleeping Beauty and House of Tolerance, �feature �elderly diners being waited on by naked �prostitutes. We're
so over brothels
