A flurry of stars on the red carpet for the opening night of the Cannes Film Festival • FRANCE 24

There are the red carpet regulars Eva Longoria, Quentyn Tarantino, Claude Louch, and jury president Juliet Bino. And then there are those who are at can for the first time such as Juliet Armen who starred in the festival’s opening movie Partier Anour directed by Emily Bon. Other members of the judging panel for the 70th edition include Jeremy Strong, Halib Berry, Judo Hamadi, and Leila Salmani. And like every year, the jury climbed the famous steps together. Inside, Lauron Lafit took up his role as master of ceremonies. I would like to dedicate this opening ceremony to Emily Deen. The 43-year-old Belgian actress died of cancer on March 16th. Aside from the actors and movies, politics also featured heavily throughout the ceremony. [Applause] The day before she died, she had learned that the film in which she featured was selected here at the Can Film Festival. What makes you happy? She’s referring to Fatma Asuna, the Palestinian photojournalist killed in Gaza in an Israeli bombardment. And like every opening ceremony, there’s a palmed on air with a long ovation and emotional Robert Dairo also had a message. America’s Philistine president has had himself appointed head of one of our premier cultural institutions. There was then another legend, Quentyn Tarantino, who made an important announcement. The 78th Festival of Dukong to be officially open. Now it’s time for 15 days of cinema.

Eva Longoria, Halle Berry, Robert De Niro, or Juliette Binoche… a flurry of stars graced the red carpet in Cannes during the opening ceremony of the festival.
