Cannes 75 Intel & Updated Predictions

March 17, 2022 Jordan Ruimy

The 75th Cannes Film Festival is just two weeks away and I’m hearing Thierry Fremaux is very late in completing his selection of films. In fact, not many have been selected.

What I do know is that Ostlund, Park and Kore-eda are definitely confirmed for competition. Other than that, we have films that are 90% possibilities, some much less so.

I’m being told there is one Italian film and one American film definitely locked in for competition. The person I spoke to doesn’t want to say more. The Italian one could either be Luca Guadagnino’s “Bones and All” or Pietro Marcello’s “L’Envoi.”

I have taken out of my predictions Russian filmmaker Kantemir Balagov’s “Monica” because I was told not a single frame of that film has been shot yet. Balagov is currently stuck in Georgia working on an American VISA. Godspeed.

I have also reveived a few emails about whether or not George Miller’s “Three Thousand Years of Longing” is part of the competition. The answer is I have no idea.
