]]>Anatomy of a Fall gripped the Cannes audience with its thrilling story about a German writer who finds herself in the middle of an intense murder trial after her husband is found dead in the snow below their secluded chalet in the French Alps.
Triet joins the exclusive company of Jane Campion and Julia Ducournau as the third woman to ever claim this prestigious award, and she dedicated it to all the young directors trying to make an impact today.
“We must give them the space I occupied 15 years ago in a less hostile world where it was still possible to make mistakes and start again,” said Triet in her acceptance speech.
The Cannes Film Festival returned to the French Riviera between May 16-27 and introduced us to some of the year’s most anticipated films. Jonathan Glazer’s The Zone of Interest won the prestigious Grand Prix, while Aki Kaurismäki’s Fallen Leaves walked away with the Jury Prize.

]]>Annette is Carax’s English-language debut and his first film to arrive at Cannes almost a decade after Holy Motors, which was in the running for a Palme d’Or in 2012.
The festival’s director Pierre Lescure believes Carax will deliver the same kind of spectacle with his next project. “Every Leos Carax film is an event. And this one delivers on its promises! Annette is the gift that lovers of cinema, music, and culture were hoping for, one that we have been yearning for during the past year,” said Lescure in a press release.
In addition to Cotillard and Driver, Annette also stars Simon Helberg and the young Belgian singer Angèle. It centers on a celebrity couple—a stand-up comedian and a world-famous soprano singer, whose lives turn upside down after their daughter is born with a unique gift.
The 74th Cannes Film Festival will take place between July 6th and 17th, and the rest of the lineup is yet to be announced.

The thriller Parasite proved to be the star of the festival (sorry, Quentin Tarantino), claiming the main prize at the prestigious event — the coveted Palme d’Or.
Bong Joon-ho’s film has been regarded as one of the best of the year, with a synopsis that reads:
“Meet the Park Family: the picture of aspirational wealth. And the Kim Family, rich in street smarts but not much else. Be it chance or fate, these two houses are brought together and the Kims’ sense a golden opportunity. Masterminded by college-aged Ki-woo, the Kim children expediently install themselves as tutor and art therapist to the Parks. Soon, a symbiotic relationship forms between the two families. But this new ecosystem is fragile, and soon enough greed and class prejudice threaten to upend the Kims’ newfound comfort.”
Becoming the very first Korean movie to receive the Palme d’Or, it is expected to be a shoe-in as South Korea’s submission for Beat Foreign Language film at next year’s Academy Awards.
But the film will also be coming to western cinemas.
Indie and foreign film distributor Neon bought US rights to the movie prior to its showing at Cannes, and now plans to release Parasite in theaters on October 11th at the height of Oscar season.

“We are incredibly honoured and excited to premiere our movie Rocketman at the Cannes film festival on May 16th. This has been a labour of love for all of us and we couldn’t dream of a better launching pad for this very special film,” said producers Rocket Pictures and Marv Films in a statement.
The film is a story about the fantastical human story of John’s breakthrough years. It follows John’s early days as a prodigy at the Royal Academy of Music up to his eventual musical partnership with Bernie Taupin.
The film stars Taron Egerton as the musical icon. Also on the call sheet are Jamie Bell, Richard Madden, and Bryce Dallas Howard.

The Cannes Film Festival debut will be followed by a May 31 domestic release.
