What an absolutely sumptuous looking production - I cannot wait. The way he moves his lips in that scene at Versailles where she curtsies.

From Deadline, Cannes Festival Director Thierry Fremaux talking about his decision to select 'Jeanne du Barry' as the opening film:
FRÉMAUX: "It’s a beautiful film and Maïwenn is also part of the history of the festival. The opening film also has to come out simultaneously in French cinemas, we don’t put platform films in that slot, because we want France to participate in the festival. The film is a success and Johnny Depp [as Louis XV] is magnificent in it. It recounts something about the history of women inside history and the place of women in relation to the king"
Magnificent....oh yes, that's exactly what we think and we are glad, sir, that you agree.

I am always looking for good news, and unfortunately I don't always find what I am looking for.
Here is a two sentence gem from The Guardian "Cannes has its first ever female president in the form of former Warner Bros executive Iris Knobloch and in fact the opening film is directed by a woman: the historical drama Jeanne du Barry by Maïwenn. Yet starring as Louis XV is the bedraggled and contentious figure of Johnny Depp, so recently in an acrimonious court case with Amber Heard: which would in itself make North American festivals chary of giving the film quite so much prominence."
Here is the link:
When does this stop? How much longer do we have to deal with such garbage?
Am I right that The Guardian is a liberal-leaning paper? Is that why they have chosen to continue to drag JD's name through the mud? I really worry about our opportunities to see this film. And I have always been a liberal myself and I don't understand why liberal media has sided with AH.
