All That Glamour And Gossip

Michelle Williams put on a brave - and radiant - face and made her first major public appearance since the death of Heath Ledger. She walked the red carpet for premieres of two of her upcoming films at the Cannes Film Festival.

According to E! Online, the actress decided last minute to join the director of Wendy and Lucy in premiering and promoting the low-budget film (she plays Wendy). While in town, Michelle also made the rounds for Synedoche, New York, another flick she stars in alongside Catherine Keener and Philip Seymour Hoffman. After the screening, she attended a party to celebrate the comedy, where she caught up with Brad Pitt.

There was no time to enjoy the French Riviera as the busy working girl jetted back to Boston to continue filming the Martin Scorsese drama Shutter Island.
