Cannes prepara regresso vistoso

By Jordi Bou

July 6, 2021 - July 17, 2021 - O Festival de Cinema de Cannes regressa após um ano de ausência, embora adiado do seu calendário habitual de maio devido às atuais restrições da Covid-19. O musical Annette, de Leos Carax com Adam Driver e Marion Cotillard e banda sonora de Sparks, abre o festival de 10 dias cujo júri é presidido por Spike Lee.

After being forced to cancel the 2020 edition on account of the pandemic, Cannes vowed to return with a live event that would bring back the glamour, stars and prestigious filmmakers.

Organisers of the world's biggest film festival are confident of being able to host dinners and beach screenings alongside the main competition as some Covid-19 measures are lifted in France.

Some of the most anticipated films of this edition include Leos Carax’s musical romance “Annette” with Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard, which will kick off the festival; Verhoeven’s subversive period thriller “Benedetta,” set in the late 15th century and starring Virginie Efira as a novice nun; and “The French Dispatch,” Anderson’s 10th movie, with Tilda Swinton, Benicio del Toro, Bill Murray and Timothée Chalamet, among other stars.

Two-Oscar winner Jodie Foster, the festival’s guest of honour at its opening ceremony on July 6, will be awarded an honorary Palme d’Or.
