2021 Cannes Winners Announced! (My thoughts)

[@haemaincinema6331]

We loved you Cannes Expert!

[@megamoviez]

Wish I could’ve made it this year. All of these sound incredible. Maybe next year.

[@PretentiousStuff]

I just can't wait to see Titane. It is exactly my kind of movie and I also absolutely loved RAW.

[@knwr]

These are good film breakdowns. Just enough information about the plot/people involved to know if I'll like it, but not enough to spoil anything about the plot.

[@KartLife]

Loved your coverage man; one reason I fell in love with your channel is that it's exactly the kinda thing I wish I had started when I was your age! I've been a rabid Oscar fan and now am a rabid Cannes fan as well. Would LOVE if you posted one more video that was like a Cannes diary-- what the whole experience was like for you, etc, so we can live vicariously! PS - the Ducournau premonitions were amazing, love that!!! Keep up the good work dude.

This Cannes edition was no 2019 that boasted instant classics such as Parasite, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Atlantique, Pain & Glory, Beanpole and The Lighthouse but I still enjoyed the usual high quality and variety. My top favorites were Vortex, The Worst Person in the World, and Cow. (I respect Titane but it doesn’t fully work for me.) And Spike Lee truly didn’t get SEVERAL memos lol

[@ktom5262]

Titane, Benedetta, Anette or Drive My Car are easily better films than Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and I'd say they can be instant classics.

[@manantial773]

@@ktom5262 You sound like a Tarantino hater, be more realistic and objective, please. Your personal opinions does not define classics.

[@manantial773]

Atlantique and Beanpole are not classics on the level of Parasite, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Pain & Glory and The Lighthouse, not even close. Atlantique is too hated to be even a small classic. Beanpole I would say that is a classic among the festivals crowd.

[@ktom5262]

@@manantial773 I am being realistic and objective. That film has only one very good scene - at the Spahn ranch. The rest of it is overly long, poorly edited and mediocre.

[@yasharmosaffayetabrizi7055]

@@ktom5262 "Poorly edited?" The "Out of Time"-sequence is a masterclass in editing on its own. It was way more mature in terms of style and transitions. Hard disagree there. And Benedetta is not even close to OUaTiH, because they're totally different films! That comparison is crazy. Cannes 2019 was indeed something else. Add A Hidden Life, Sorry We Missed You and The Wild Goose Lake to the list mentioned above and you'll realize what a magnificent year 2019 was. Not only Cannes, but also in general.

First time I’ve heard someone mention Elephant in a while, love that film

[@manantial773]

Thank you for the great work!

[@eyrelobo6390]

Great video/review!

[@65g4]

I hope i get to see Titane

[@filmfreak21]

Can not wait to see Titane.

[@JackieWarner13]

As an Aussie I hate that there's a movie about the mass shooter & his life. It's not going to be watched or go well down here in Australia. It's been over 20 years & it's why we have better gun laws but it's still hard & sad for a lot of people. Most people in the state of Tasmania know someone who was effected.

[@SA-xv3kv]

You need to watch 'Ahed's Knee' director Nadav Lapid's previous film 'Synonyms'. That was a crazy film. And yes! His films are quite experimental but, very entertaining as well... And, I loved Juho Kuosmanen's previous film too. Very realistic and effective.

[@nikolassodiant2595]

Carax best director made me So happy !!

[@ปลาทูนึ่ง-จ7ฎ]

A Hero Vs. The Worst Person in the world on oscar international film next year

[@notchuckproductions5029]

Cances despite being the most respected film festival is really a good predictor for the Oscars. Venice and TIFF are more significant

[@remiellis972]

It’s weird not seeing brother bro

You didn't comment on camera d'or. Does 'Murina' have a chance at the Oscars??

[@Thiagoo662]

Too low key for oscars

[@lukaesler6578]

@@Thiagoo662 idk it reminded me of Nomadland so if campaigned well i think it has a shot

[@Lamidemonami7891]

No need to call me out at the end

[@samuelblachon95130]

france won this year i'm happy

[@thefilmseeker]

Cannes tends to go 2/10 each decade with giving their director awards to eventual Best Director nominees... Looks like this is one of the other 8 years.

[@Arl662]

Can't wait for red rocket review

[@AntsMovies]

Is she the won that made the movie RAW back on 2016? Edit: meant to say one not won (lol)

[@rangergrrrl]

Yes.

[@PretentiousStuff]

The won and only

[@samuelblachon95130]

NEON are the best

[@rsena0210]

I wonder if anybody can watch the movies on the festival or if you need a special pass or invitation to attend the screening

[@Thiagoo662]

You need to work with cinema in some way and you need to be approved, so not for everyone

[@jesuischiara6335]

They have an accreditation program for young people (

Are you gonna review petrov's flu?

[@TheOscarExpert]

I didn't see it.

[@thomaschapman3230]

"Julia Ducournau became the second woman ever to win the Palme D'or". Not exactly, she's actually the fourth. When Blue is the Warmest Colour won, the jury awarded the Palme to the two lead actresses as well as the director. She's the second female director though. Just think that's an important distinction to make.

[@leobekmarmarchevfilms]

French dispatch??

[@JannaAnderson-ol4gs]

Nitram is a good film

[@GareBare90]

👍🏾

[@samuelblachon95130]

i disagree les misérabes was the obvious choice for the oscars he won the Jury Prize at the 2019 Cannes film festival LADY only won the best screenplay award

[@MyRitieli]

In fact, the french committee choose Les miserables over Portrait of a lady on fire because Neon bought the rights of US distribution for Portrait and Parasite. And in 2020 campaign was obvious that neon would priorize the corean movie over the french. So, to avoid this conflit, the France's pick was Les mis.

[@ktom5262]

I disagree, The Lady on Fire is the much better film of the two.

[@SA-xv3kv]

les misérabes was much more topical than Lady... Altho, the latter was much better.

[@lorenzidane15]

These would have been my awards for this year : Palme d'Or : Onoda (selected in Un Certain Regard but should've been in competition in official selection imo) Grand Prize : A Hero (incredibly charismatic actor) Jury Prize : Titane Directing : Annette Screenplay : La Fracture (The Divide) Actress : Virginie Efira (Benedetta) (Bruni Tedeschi right behind, hilarious in The Divide) Actor : Simon Rex (Red Rocket) ____________________________ Special Prize for cast ensemble : Casablanca Beats / The Worst Person in the World Cinematography : Annette Editing : Annette / La Fracture (The Divide) Sound : Les Olympiades (Paris 13th District)

[@andrewmoonbeam321]

Titane, subliminal messaging perhaps.
