At the end, the win for “Titane” was announced by Lee and presenter Sharon Stone. After the flub, the ceremony continued and other awards were handed out while Lee was seen with his head in his hands.

The Grand Prix award was a joint honor split between the Iranian drama “A Hero” and Finnish director Juho Kuosmanen’s “Apartment No.

Elsa Keslassy International CorrespondentWith the 74th edition of the Cannes Film Festival in the rearview mirror, Variety caught up with the festival’s chief and artistic director Thierry Fremaux to discuss the highlights and surprises of this year’s event.

Post-COVID Cannes Film Festival Rejects Notion That Cinema Must Return to ‘Normal’ (Opinion)

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticFor all those hoping that the in-person 2021 edition of the Cannes Film Festival would mark a return to “normal,” the winner of this year’s Palme d’Or must have been a shocker — not the choice by Spike Lee’s jury (the choice was solid) so much as the movie itself: “Titane,” a radical queer take on the monster movie that bends the rules of genre, gender and gore.That this punk sensation was directed by a woman (only the second to win the Palme, after “The Piano” helmer Jane Campion, who tied for the prize in 1993) suggests that things really have changed during the turbulent year of the pandemic, as Cannes signaled many fresh possibilities — a diversity of style and storytellers alike — while underscoring the

The Cannes Film Festival wrapped on Saturday night with one of the zaniest prize ceremonies on record, punctuating what had already been a surreal two weeks on the Riviera. Capping off the proceedings was the Palme d’Or win for Julia Ducournau’s audacious genre title Titane which anoints the French director as only the second female ever to take the top gong — and that’s a big deal for a festival that has struggled with issues of parity in the past.

It just may turn out to be that the one, maybe only, thing the 73rd Annual Cannes Film Festival may have in common with the Oscars is that it is most remembered for screwing up the presentation of the big winner. As you recall in 2017 Best Picture winners Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway were handed the wrong envelope and Dunaway blurted out the name of what turned out to be the wrong winner, La La Land and when a few moments later a frazzled – soon to be fired – accountant corrected that with the actual winner, Moonlight.
