Not really a hot take or anything but kind of interesting that today, an L.A. Confidential would be (far) more likely for the Palme than that year’s winners The Eel and Taste of Cherry.

“There is a long and beautiful history between the #BiennaleCinema and I. Becoming a privileged spectator is an honor. More than ever, cinema is a promise.

Une toile délirante de Takeshi Kitano pour l'affiche 2024 ! Une peinture décalée qui salue la poésie, l'humour et le burlesque du cinéaste japonais passé par la Quinzaine en 1996.
