Gasps ring out at Cannes as Spike Lee accidentally reveals winner early
Once the froth of the festival settles, what's left is another crop of films from around the world, from places expected and not, rated, reviewed and ready to find their way to the public. So Cannes' mission can be said to be a success.to reflect on what's come before all the more necessary. Mark Cousins provided that with his documentary"The Story of Film: A New Generation," which preceded the opening ceremony and cast an eye over the past decade of cinema.
Our unwitting guide is Petrov , a comic book artist whose bout of flu sends viewers into a tailspin. He's feverish, the city's febrile, and events -- real and imagined -- collide. From a crowded bus to a public execution and then into the back of a stolen hearse, we ride with the protagonist along the underbelly of society, meeting an ensemble of characters painted in shades absurd, grotesque and pathetic.
Just like the characters who sing"Neither/neither, Won't be either/either," the script talks in metaphor and riddle, frequently speaking to more than one aspect of the story simultaneously. Meaning stacks up, but can also become obscured. But if the film's narrative is hard to follow at times, what's unmistakable is how good the music is -- rhythmic, communal and unpretentious."Neptune Frost" is a musical that wears its musicality lightly.
Some viewers will realize the truth quicker than others, but frankly it doesn't matter. For the most part, we're too occupied with the journey to think about the destination. This is a film that radiates warmth, protecting Panahi's characters -- and the audience -- against a devastating note at its heart. You'll miss your time hitching a ride alongside them.Franz Rogowski is an actor at the top of his game, and he's never had a better vehicle than Sebastian Meise's time-hopping prison drama., a historic law criminalizing sexual acts between men.
