After almost two weeks of exhaustive film screenings, Jane Fonda came to Cannes on Friday.

Although the film is doing well at the U.S. box-office, it’s actually bombing hard in China. The backlash over a black actress playing the titular character seems to be the reason why.

Pixar’s latest feature, this one titled “Elemental,” looked promising, but has now screened at Cannes and been met with disappointing reviews.

It happens, but rarely. The best film in Cannes competition actually won the Palme d’Or. Justine Triet’s masterful “Anatomy of a Fall,” a Hitchcockian did-she-do-it, won the big prize at Cannes.

According to Daniel Richtman, Oscar Isaac has been offered the male lead in David Robert Mitchell’s dinosaur movie set in the '80s starring Anne Hathaway called “Flowervale St.”

The filmmaker doesn’t share any further details, but this is great news, as the duo previously worked together on the excellent HBO series, “Mildred Pierce,” more than a decade ago.

The Palme d’Or will be awarded later today along with acting and directing prizes.

Ken Loach said on Friday he does not know if "The Old Oak” would be his last film.

Today the awards for the Un Certain Regard category were announced. I saw 15 of the 19 films competing in this sidebar section, which is filled with first-time directorial efforts.

According to his latest earnings call (via Comicbook), Lionsgate President Joe Drake confirmed that a fifth John Wick is in development.

The Cannes jury has spent the last ten days watching 21 competition films.

There’s long been debate about whether television could ever attain the same heights as cinema. It could lead to a never ending conversation, one filled with richly conceived arguments, and clunky ones.

Josh and Benny Safdie are temporarily splitting up to direct separate projects, according to Above the Line.

One of the great French filmmakers of the last 30+ years has come out of her retirement for, at least, one more film. Catherine Breillat’s “Last Summer” screened last night to polarizing reactions.

Why is Sam Levinson’s “The Idol” so hated by critics? From the episodes that I’ve seen it’s a trashy good time and it’s all slickly rendered by “Euphoria” creator.

“The Creator” stars John David Washington as the last hope for mankind after A.I. detonates a nuclear warhead on Los Angeles. The trailer was released earlier this month.

Nicole Holofcener has built up a strong filmography over her 3-decade filmmaking career. My favorite of hers is still “Lovely and Amazing,” this little indie gem from 2002.

IGN is reporting that “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One” officially clocks in at 156 minutes. And that’s the final cut.

Pedro Almodóvar will finally be shooting his first full-length English-language feature next March in NYC.

UPDATE: Well, here it is. I really wish I could say this looks good. Visually, it looks fantastic, but I’m trying to wrap my head around the silly plot. Some of the jokes don’t land either.
