U2 played the Cannes Film Festival last night to promote their new concert movie �U23D�.

The veteran rockers wheeled out �Where the Streets Have No Name� and �Vertigo� on the steps of the Festival Hall before an audience of thousands donned their 3-D glasses.

Ever the schmoozer, singer Bono wished the crowd �Happy birthday, Cannes� in French, marking the film festival�s 60th anniversary.

The new 55 minute film, directed by Catherine Owens and Mark Pellington, covers the band�s �Vertigo� tour.
