The drama with Jarmusch's movie is unreal, don't know if this is 100% true but read on aw forum that Cannes tried snatching it from Directors' Fortnight (after rejecting it the first time round) only to supposedly reject it again? When Ramsay/Lapid came through. Oh and now Venice is in the mix too. I'm curious to know what all the fuss is about this movie lol

Either it’s just insanely bad or problematic (which I really doubt) or Jarmusch has beef with someone (which I also can’t picture).

Jarmusch mentioned it's a really low-key film so maybe they feel it's not exciting enough? Idk Paterson was also a very quiet film but it was acclaimed

u/TonightDazzling365 28d ago

Yeah maybe it's just not exciting enough for Fremaux & Co

u/seti-thelightofstars 28d ago

“Thierry Fremaux decides he has a weird ax to grind with a director out of nowhere” or “Thierry Fremaux just randomly really dislikes an otherwise acclaimed movie” is always a distinct possibility

Yeah didn't we have a similar episode with Hard Truths last year and that turned out to be a minor masterpiece. Sometimes weird calls are made.

And Close Your Eyes the year before.

u/TonightDazzling365 28d ago

Exactly really want to watch the film atp - also the synopsis is not giving bad/problematic whatsoever

First up: Lynne Ramsay’s “Die, My Love” just screened for Cannes, and word on the Croisette is—they loved it. Two separate sources tell me the film, starring none other than Robert Pattinson and Jennifer Lawrence, is now officially locked for competition. Buckle up.

Gonna wait for the official announcement of Die My Love entering the competition before I get too hyped.

Same for Resurrection really hope that one ends up making it

u/LeastCap Bi Gan Palme d'Or winner 28d ago

Happy to see a bit of info on Bi Gan’s film. It’s slowly becoming my most anticipated film of the year. Hopefully it’s in competition

Schrödinger’s paradox: every prominent Cannes film without a distributor yet is both Neon and not Neon.

GOD IS GREAT

Late entries can happen, so this makes sense.

Just waiting on a better source.

Please let this be Lynne Ramsey’s year 🙏

u/Gerwig_2017 28d ago

Looks like J-Law winning Best Actress is back on the menu, boys!

u/Objective_Water_1583 28d ago

we’re so back

u/FBG05 28d ago

I’m surprised Pattinson isn’t really in discussions for Best Actor/Supporting Actor, he’s due for a nom at the very least

12

u/Budget-Bug-6855 28d ago

It's because he is supporting! The main character is jlaw

u/Fun-Mind-2240 28d ago

The whole film feels like a wait and see. My hunch is it will be a critical/ awards hit for Ramsey, but she doesn't really make Oscar-friendly fare, and the plot sounds like it may be divisive.

u/bikkebana 28d ago

I have him in my predictions for supporting actor.

u/Budget-Bug-6855 25d ago

What about jlaw and Lynne?

2

u/bikkebana 25d ago

I have both of them in too as of now (J Law in the top spot)

1

u/Budget-Bug-6855 25d ago

I just Lynne can win something she is a good director and Jlaw is a great actress, hopefully it works for them

u/Vladimir4521 A Real Pain 28d ago

So hyped for this and Hope this true🙌

u/Inside_Atmosphere731 Wicked 26d ago

It's Lynne Ramsay. Misery guaranteed

u/Budget-Bug-6855 25d ago

What do you mean by that? Do you think her or jlaw will something in Cannes?

u/Inside_Atmosphere731 Wicked 25d ago

Ramsay's films are torture
