For posterity…
Ok maybe it won’t be the Audiard
so it looks like Megalopolis is not getting anything (Sean Baker is in the audience and I don't see Coppola)

There it is. I can't remember what I went for but pretty sure the one vote wasn't mine

Thrilled for him! Still feel like I’m on the fence about his work in general, but always worth wrestling with

Coppola was there to give the Honorary Palm to George Lucas. But for a while I was really worried he would twin.
Sean Baker winning is great!

Not having seen any of the films, it sounds like they chose wisely for the most part. Congratulations to Greta Gerwig and the jury

the Caméra d'Or-winning film Armand by Halfdan Ullmann Tondel, the grandson of Liv Ullman and Ingmar Bergman, featuring a totally flipped out performance by Renate Reinsve, sounds very interesting to me

Of the films not in the main competition, Alain Guiraudie’s Miséricorde from the Cannes Premiere section is the one I most want to see. He is one of my favorite directors (I loved Stranger By the Lake and Staying Vertical), and I've heard great things about it

I'm still unhappy that Apichatpong Weerasethakul's Memoria, winner of the Cannes Jury Prize in 2021 and a film that by all accounts is amazing, may never become available for me to see in the US on streaming
