Top 10 Prime Minister Cannes: "Megalopolis" Koppoli, Western Kostner, a movie about Russian invasion of Ukraine

The satirical comedy that opened the festival from the extremely fruitful Frenchman Quentin Dupier is his fifth picture in the last two years. In 2023, he came out "Daaaaaaaaai!" About the journalist who interview Salvador further, and the movie "Jannik" is about an unusual performance during which the viewer lost control over himself.

According to the plot of "Second Act", the main character wants to introduce her boyfriend to her father, but she is not in love with her gentleman - and is trying to chase her for her friend. However, the feature is not in this, but that it is a movie about cinema, the ridicule of all cinematographic templates, which is visible from the trailer, where the actors argue: which one is more important? Who is the story about? The movie includes French stars: Lea Seida, Louis Harrel, Vincent Linon.

The 85-year-old American classic Francis Ford Coppola, twice awarded the "golden palm branch", decided to stun Cannes with a blockbuster for $ 120 million. In recent years, his cinema has not aroused great interest because, in our opinion, Copuli deviated from his creative formula: Getting into hell - transformation into a beast.

In the new movie, he may turn to it, because here the story of an alternative story about the battle of Architect New York Caesar (Adam Driver) and the Cicero's mayor (Jangarlo Espozito)-for the future of this "Megalopolis". The basis of history is ancient Roman bloody showdowns associated with the plot of Katilins. The trailer shows that the scope of New Rome is for the entire hundred millions.

If the master managed to squeeze the pseudo -Russian war for power into his favorite personal canon, there will be a success. No - we get a set of beautiful pictures. So far, the somewhat indifferent-surprised face of Adam Drever in the trailer does not cause a triumph. Although the similarity with the Roman emperor is.

Greek director Jorgos Lantimimos will try to repeat the triumph of their "poor creatures", which took the main prize of the Venice Film Festival last year when Emma Stone won Oscar for the best female role. The heroes of his fantastic movie are Americans with whom strange, incomprehensible things happen: a woman is looking for a man with assemblies to create a new cult, a cop meets her missing wife, who for some reason radically changed his appearance and so on.

The main roles of Lantimos took the same stars that brought him success in 2023: in the picture "Kindness" perform Solo Emma Stone and Villa Defoe. Iranian director Ali Abbasi undertook to ridicule Donald Trump. The Milter-Bill and Future President of America is played by Sebastian Stan. Actor Jeremy Strong - his mentor, lawyer Roy Kon. The picture will reveal the schemes that Trump used to build his construction empire and those that brought him to the political Olympus.

It hints that young Trump has made an alliance with influential lawyer and political mediator for life for life success - it is something like Faust's agreement with Mephistopheles. The tape will show the Trump environment in detail: from his father - to children. For more than forty years, Richard Gir's joint project and directed by Paul Schroeder, in which 1980 was published by the American Zhilod.

A picture of a exhausted, unhealthy director-documentary of the left views, who fled to Canada to avoid conscription for the Vietnamese war. He dies in Montreal and agrees to the last, confessional interview, which is determined to reveal all his secrets. The interview is taken by an assistant - a former student, in the presence of the director's wife. They will both be amazed by confessions that will greatly change the perfect image of the director who has developed before.

In the role of the wife of the protagonist - Uma Turman. Unfortunately, there is no trailer yet. Michelle Khazanavichus is the same French guy who once impressed the movie with his silent "artist" (2011). His Zombie-Comedy "Slaughter Installation" opened Cannes in 2022. Michelle is constantly changing the application forms, and this time he removed the cartoon. His hero is a Jewish infant who saves a couple from Poland during the Holocaust.

From the video you will not say that the picture is striking something, but nevertheless, the cartoon of Khazanavichus is involved in the main competition. Kevin Kostner, inspired by the series "Ellouston" (5 seasons), decided to remove Vestern himself. Cannes will show the first part of his two -series epic: how the event was conquered. The carts go and go west, they are regularly burned by enemies, but the displaced persons do not stop.

The last Kevin Kostner was sitting in a director's chair twenty -one years ago - in the western "Open Space". I decided to remember the youth, taking a lot of bright actors in the project: Sam Wortington (Avatar), Giovanni Ribizi, Danny Houston. The black comedy with Kate Blanchett and Alicia Vikander about the leaders of the Great Seven, who, when making a joint statement, took and got lost in the forest as children. Evan Johnson is known as the creator of a quality festival cinema.

Unfortunately, there are no footage or video materials. In 2015, the Australian director George Miller issued a successful action "Crazy Max: The Road of Luti" (10 Oscar nominations, 6 received), although with a somewhat simplified plot: first the characters were traveling one way and then in the opposite way. You can mention the special method of 79-year-old director from Australia.

In 1997, Miller made the documentary "Forty thousand years of dreams", where he showed the cinema and mythology of Australia through the theory of the book "The Millennial Hero" by Joseph Campbell (George Lucas in the Star Wars first used it). And Miller works very cool with mythological archetypes, so even if the plot is not very virtual - the movie still takes. The new cover tells the prehistory of Furiosa's warrior from "Crazy Max: The Road of Luti.

" Starring Anya Taylor-Jei and Chris Hemsworth. On May 23, in a week, the tape will be released in Ukraine. The documentary of the Ukrainian-German director Sergei Loznitsa, whom he calls the second part of the diptych about Ukraine. The first is the Maidan document. The artistic "Donbas" was shot between them, also shown in Cannes. I must say that through the internal conflict, Loznitsa was expelled from the ranks of the Ukrainian Film Academy.

However, no obstacles for political reasons in our country did not do him: for two years he made his film in Ukraine. Loznitsa in Cannes will present the "invasion" tape - about the full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine. This is a picture-about the lives of people in the rear against the backdrop of the Russian-Ukrainian war. "For almost two years our team was making a movie about you, an expensive and courageous Ukrainian people! We drove the whole of Ukraine.
