Four years ago, French writer-director Julia Ducournau came to Cannes with her sophomore feature, Titane, a movie that both shocked and dazzled audiences, then shocked a few more people by walking away with the Palme d’Or. It was only the second time a woman won the festival’s top prize, after Jane Campion did so 30…
A single card credit at the end of Spike Lee’s hugely entertaining crime thriller Highest 2 Lowest reads: “Inspired by the master, Akira Kurosawa.” That tribute feels not in the least like someone paying lip service.

Cannes’ first weekend, traditionally the period when the bidding wars begin and the first big buys are announced, has been almost frighteningly…
Japanese filmmaker Chie Hayakawa made a quiet but unforgettable entrance onto the world stage with her 2022 feature debut Plan 75, a haunting dystopian vision of state-sponsored euthanasia for the elderly.
