Why does Brother Bro cosplaying as Cole for Cannes feel poetic

[@evienicks]

a movie plot in itself

[@elijah0208]

I applaud Cole's look for going there (n totally ripping off bbro's color from prev.vid)))) im kidding, he looks great). But i mean! We know who's the real fashion star here (even when optin for a stripped down outfit) Cmon J. stans!!!! I know you're there!!!

[@nyctophilex7]

These European festivals like Cannes and Venice are always bangers.

[@cepho8349]

Also Berlin.

BTW I just wanted to say I thought your review of Zone of Interest was extremely insightful. I've watched it and re-watched it. Thank you.

[@gracefulgrizzly39]

Glad Brother Bro is going, your Cannes coverage is so fun!

[@ahmedfaraaz1]

So excited about All We Imagine As Light as it's the first Indian production in the main competition in 30 years

[@pb.j.1753]

That is crazy. The Disciple in Venice competition was only a few years ago.

[@ahmedfaraaz1]

@@pb.j.1753 yeah but that was in Venice, and even that was breaking a 20 something years old drought of Indian productions in the main competition there.

[@MaslanyKinomaniak]

I started watching your content last year, and it inspired me to try and get accreditation for Cannes myself. AND I GOT IN as a Cinophile! See you there Brother Bro! Any tips or pieces of advice? There is so little info about how ticketing, screening and red carpet work that I feel lost.

[@michelehamilton961]

Wow that is amazing. Hope you have a great time.

[@cinemasprite]

Wow how exactly did you pull that

[@shayanahmed7132]

Can you explain a little how that works? Do you mean you have a ticket to go there now? How did you get certified?

[@bianca-js7hb]

Me too! I got accepted but i have no clue about the dates for events😭 do u have insta?

[@shayanahmed7132]

@@bianca-js7hb how did you get accepted?

[@pb.j.1753]

„Opening night film is never in competition“ Factually wrong. Annette was the opening film of 2021 and it was in competition and it won Best Director. 2019‘s The Dead Don’t Die was also an opening film and in competition.

[@Bjork4s]

If Furiosa gets the same acclaim as Mad Max Fury Road out of Cannes, it'd be interesting how the 2025's Oscars competition come mostly in the technical categories given that Dune Part Two is in their way with both movies' predecessors each won 6 Oscars (the most out of any movies at each of their Oscars year) so it'd be interesting how Furiosa and Dune Part Two go head to head

[@harrisonash6]

Furiosa just doesn’t look nearly as good as fury road though

[@Bjork4s]

@@harrisonash6 You know, I didn't think Fury Road was all that necessary either but turned out to be a huge surprise 🤷

[@YorgosL1]

me i’m excited for the new hong kong film at cannes being the 1st one in over a decade.

[@lorcan545]

Pretty cool to have a Cronenberg and a Schrader together in competition. Crimes of the Future reminded me of The Card Counter in that they are very pure examples of a distinct auteur just comprehensively doing his thing. The repetitious quality has gone all the way around to become its own reward. Master Gardener was unnecessary, but I've read Foregone, the book Oh, Canada! is based on, and Schrader has set himself an all new challenge here and it could be great. A film about dying, while The Shrouds is about mourning, it seems.

[@evienicks]

Gilles is like "wheel" with a "zh" start

[@joser1853]

Megalopalis will either be the biggest surprise of the year, or the biggest flop of the 21st century.

[@GareBare90]

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO! CANNES TIME, BABY! CAT!

[@Bjork4s]

As for the ones in competition, I'm definitely interested for Bird (Andrea Arnold), Megalopolis (Francis Ford Coppola), and Kinds of Kindness (Yorgos Lanthimos). As for the ones that are not in competition, Furiosa (George Miller) and Horizon (Kevin Costner) sounds interesting

[@pb.j.1753]

This sounds like a selection from a high school intern at Rotten Tomatoes

[@theFILMaDDICT16]

Great brotherly love right there! Good luck on your trip, Brother Bro, I mean (The Oscar Expert)! Real big fan! I wish I could go too. Someday I will. Hopefully. Peace & love, always!

[@cezarykobiela2154]

One point worth adding regarding Limonov is that it's co-written by Paweł Pawlikowski (Ida, Cold War). I had a chance to watch Magnus von Horn previous film "Sweat" and I really loved it (especially lead actress performance, that was my no 1 in this category that year). It also had Michał Dymek as cinematographer and even though it was totally different type of work, it really made the movie what it was. So I have very high hopes for "The Girl with the Needle".

[@Martin-gx7yu]

By Serebrennikov you have to watch "Leto", about a famous russian rock-band, which doesn't feel like a biopic and is very original. And also great soundtrack.

[@LaurenBrodauf]

hi brother bro i’ll be in cannes as well this year, would love to meet up ! :)

[@PaperlessWriter]

Interesting Branch Brook Park sweatshirt you got there:) As someone who's lived and worked in Newark, NJ for 20 years, I have to ask: do you have much connection to the area or did you just come here for that cherry blossom event (was that a race?)? Love your channel, BTW:)

[@dubudubudan]

20:53 this film is directed by the WRITER of the Blue Caftan, a guy called Nabil Ayouch. The director was a woman called Maryam Touzani

[@mengzhang435]

Black looks great on brother bro

[@jramz5176]

surprised that The Apprentice will be ready for Cannes.

[@joshkegley7336]

"Border" was IN competition at Un Certain Regard (2018) and won. Zar Amir Ebrahimi won Best Actress for Holy Spider (in competition 2022).

[@jrr1358]

After 30 yrs someone from India Payal Kapadia's All we imagine as light, is in competition... And other one Sandhya Suri's UK-European co-production Santosh (Hindi) is in uncertain regards section . Female filmmakers are taking big strives.

Crazy that Blitz isn’t here

[@PoetryJesusY2K]

Gearing up for Venice

[@matthewkauerauf1886]

The main question is which film will win/be nominated for best picture. And which three will be nominated for international feature. I was predicting Those Who Find Me but that’s not even in the lineup. Megalopolis is a huge gamble. The only way it can come out on top is to win the festival

[@thefilmseeker]

Super surprised (and bummed) that Those Who Find Me isn't here. Doesn't really make sense; the director is already a Cannes favourite, Beginning was great, and there's a severe lack of women in the lineup this year.

[@cepho8349]

There will be additions, so it might get added eventually.

[@matthewkauerauf1886]

Good to know! I didn’t know that

[@SleepFan771]

Bon voyage Brother Bro! Try to see all the international features and smaller films that may not even get released worldwide for months if ever. You'll definitely be able to see like Furiosa elsewhere and soon.

[@quirkyjoeAnimated]

Yeah, you gotta keep watching the Cronenberg films, whichever Cronenberg you're watching.

[@quintonposs3286]

Videodrome is good.

[@guest_informant]

Fact Check Alert: "Deerskin", directed by Quentin Dupieux, featured Best Actor Oscar winner Jean Dujardin. FWIW I've seen a couple of his films ("Deerskin" and "Smoking Causes Coughing"), and they're very different, but in the end, I would say, not very good. For me they are literally dream-like, as in what dreams are actually like, ie full of bizarre events, but ultimately there's no thread, and it's just a string of extremely bizarre random events. It's maybe worth seeing one out of curiosity, but two was too many :-) YMMV.

[@FrakkinToasterLuvva]

",,,wuh the help of his lawyer, Roy Cohn" - kinda makes it sound like you have no idea who he was.

[@manantial773]

Border ganó Un Certain Regard en Cannes.

[@CalRoberts-gx3jt]

I wonder what Trump would actually think of the Apprentice if he watched it

[@nivarad]

Why wouldn’t Francis Ford Coppola release Megaloplis on his own, like Taylor Swift did ?

[@pb.j.1753]

Taylor did it with Disney Plus and distributors around the world that specialize in event programming/alternative programming. A concert film is very different from a prestige self-financed narrative art film.

[@updateshathaway]

Taylor released on her own with the help of AMC in theaters before Disney+ bought it ​@@pb.j.1753

[@thefilmseeker]

Ok so A24 is COMPLETELY absent from Cannes this year if they don’t have Bird, then. Could’ve sworn it was theirs until now. Really was hoping for a MaXXXine midnight screening. (Also, Nabil Ayouch didn’t direct The Blue Caftan; that was Maryam Touzani.) Otherwise, surprised and saddened not to see Mike Leigh or Dea Kulumbagshvili here.

[@pb.j.1753]

Nope. They have „On Becoming A Guinea Fowl“ by Rungano Nyoni which is in Un Certain Regard.

[@cinemasprite]

As a Moroccan and big Oscar expert fan I thank you for the correction! Thought it was just me who noticed that lol

[@cepho8349]

There will be additions.

[@thefilmseeker]

@@pb.j.1753 ah, that’s good to know.

[@thefilmseeker]

@@cepho8349 yeah but those additions tend to be one auteurist project and one more token French film that nobody’s going to remember after it premieres. Really hoping the 2 I mentioned get added next week, but considering Leigh’s film was finished and supposedly on the final shortlist, the fact that it wasn’t added right away makes it seem like they didn’t want it period.

[@YorgosL1]

You skip twilight of the warrior.

[@FrakkinToasterLuvva]

IMDB a source for how big a role is? LMAO Before a movie is released, IMDB lists the submitted actors ranking them by IMDB star meter, which is about how much people search someone's name on IMDB.

[@benjamintillema3572]

Also, at least the TV shows, they do not have accurate information about which actor will appear and when. I distinctly remember looking into The Crown shortly before the first season premiered and it said that Claire Foy, the lead, was only going to be in two episodes.

[@savvastoynoysidis360]

No gonna lie . I kinda really want kind of kindness win yhis
