The scorched earth of the financial world has yielded a rich harvest for film-makers at the Cannes film festival, where documentaries and dramas are tapping the emotion behind the crisis.
Among the non-fiction at the world's biggest film event, "Inside Job" by US documentary-maker Charles Ferguson hit critics hard on Saturday with a surgical analysis of who caused the financial crisis and how.

Physicists at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory are reporting that they have discovered a new clue that could help unravel one of the biggest mysteries of cosmology: why the universe is composed of matter and not its evil-twin opposite, antimatter. If confirmed, the finding portends fundamental discoveries at the new Large Hadron Collider outside Geneva, as well as a possible explanation for our own existence.
