Films that don't meet competition criteria but judges would like them to receive recognition anyway.
>>68251808

Have you never been to a film festival pleb?
>>68251808

The Cannes ceremony is arguably the best awards ceremony in film in terms of the quality of films awarded. It's not perfect by any means, but it's leagues above any other awards.
>>68252269
nice try Biebs
>>68253883
Cannes is mostly boring ass Marxist-Lacanian horseshit, even the MTV movie awards are better
>>68252435
not one of those is a good film, some decent cinematic ambien though
>>68253951
Marxism and Lacan have been deeply unpopular in France since 80s
Most of the films are openly humanist/aestheticist. The genre of political film is largely dead.
>>68253951
I hate Marxism in Western Europe as much as anyone but >>68254243 is correct.
>Cannes: After 2015's 'Year de la Femme,' Women Directors Fall Short Again
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/cannes-2015s-year-de-la-883923
Three female directors in the competition and basically every film in competition is about females with female leads. And they are still not satisfied.
>>68254816
