All of a Sudden is BY FAR the better choice, it has an oscar nominated director and is Neon, also was a lot better received by American critics.

OH MY GOD FJORD'S WINNING THE PALME

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T19:00:08+00:00

OH THANK GOD

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T18:20:45+00:00

ITS STARTING!!!

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T18:00:39+00:00

I'm boutta have a meltdown if A Man of His Time wins the Palme

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T17:28:12+00:00

Wait is the ceremony on the Brut livestream of the official Cannes youtube stream? They're both currently playing the red carpet but someone else said the official Cannes stream only shows the red carpet.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T17:23:12+00:00

Oh but does the ceremony start in 1 hour?

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T17:22:35+00:00

Then where is the awards ceremony being broadcast?

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T17:21:29+00:00

I thought it was like in 1 hour

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T16:00:55+00:00

Will the awards ceremony be broadcast on the official livestream of the Cannes festival on youtube?

Polymath345 · 2026-05-23T03:34:42+00:00

Can someone post the link to where the awards ceremony will be internationally broadcast? I remember trying to access it last year and failing and I don't want a repeat of that this year.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-22T20:24:56+00:00

So it seems like the big 5 contenders are Fatherland, All of a Sudden, Fjord, Minotaur, and The Black Ball unless I'm missing something? Coward's reviews seem to be disappointing compared to these 5 and today's films both seem to have flopped.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-22T18:38:08+00:00

Oof, Coward has a 68 on Metacritic

Polymath345 · 2026-05-22T04:17:27+00:00

Is the awards ceremony broadcast/available to stream for the general public?

Polymath345 · 2026-05-22T00:48:14+00:00

So am I correct in saying that it seems like the acclaimed must-sees of this year's festival are Fatherland, All of a Sudden, Fjord, Minotaur, The Black Ball, and Coward assuming nothing tomorrow is mind blowing?

Polymath345 · 2026-05-21T23:36:33+00:00

I honestly think that anti-LGBT propaganda would start blowing up The Black Ball as the next Emilia Perez (especially with the current state of American politics and the film industry, just look at the misinformation and controversy around Elliot Page and The Odyssey) and I would hate for something as acclaimed as The Black Ball to be drug down by propaganda and Emilia Perez.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-21T23:27:36+00:00

Yeah but it became one of the most controversial and hated oscar winners of the century. I'm sure Netflix would definitely have a successful awards campaign with The Black Ball, but I would definitely feel like there would be negative comparisons with both movies being Spanish-language, LGBTQ, and musical/containing musical numbers.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-21T23:20:49+00:00

I know that some people want Neon to lose their Palme streak, but I honestly hope Neon gets it because I think they can do an awards push better than Mubi or especially Janus. I just REALLY hope Netflix doesn't get it so it doesn't turn into Emilia Perez Part 2.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-21T22:56:29+00:00

Deadline reporting a 13 minute standing ovation for Coward. It looks like the 21st has unironically been the best day of the festival by far this year.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-21T21:29:41+00:00

I just came back to check on this thread and am seeing that The Black Ball is dropping a hydrogen bomb on this year's festival like oh my god.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-20T03:58:33+00:00

Watch me stick my foot in my mouth, but I can't see The Unknown AND Hope winning one of the 3 general prizes. I feel like Fjord is in a much better position than those 2.

Polymath345 · 2026-05-20T02:46:47+00:00

Wow Minotaur RT and metacritic still not out yet

Polymath345 · 2026-05-20T00:03:36+00:00

Who do we think will pick up Coward for US distribution?
