Harrison Ford’s mistake and the 10 coolest photos since the start of Cannes 2023

Cannes, the festival, all this pressure… it’s been four days! And footage that has traveled around the world, such as the rise of the Indiana Jones event and the dial of fortune, led by the daring Harrison Ford. But behind the glamor of the red carpet, there is also humor and sometimes even love. Yes Yes. Like these eleven moments captured by photographers on the Croisette after the two-week opening on May 16.

From her arrival on the stairs to her speech, which received a surprise Palme d’Or.Harrison Ford Cannes will feature some memorable moments and images… but we’re particularly fond of this shot of the 80-year-old actor giving co-star ‘hug’ to young Ethan Isidore. The barely 16-year-old French actor, who appeared in several small roles in Sam or Mortel, clearly found in this huge star a legendary and protective mentor. And his joy at being by his side on the Croisette for the end of the Indy was contagious.

Did you say communicative joy? He’s also sweating in this shot of jury president Ruben Östlund and his eight jurors about to take the stage for the first time on opening night. Brie Larson is cheerful, Julia Ducournau and Denis Menochet are all smiles, their Cannes colleagues agree: these twelve days of the festival will be a priori in a wonderful friendly and passionate atmosphere… and we promise you inevitable unexpected prizes.

Here’s another unsubstantiated jury president. American actor John S. Reilly, who is responsible for the Un Certain Regard selection alongside Paula Beer, Davy Cho, Emily Deken and Alice Vaincourt, never travels without her traditional headscarf. Useful for greeting Cannes photographers with class and grace.

It was “born” in Cannes 10 years ago, with the Palme d’Or for La Vie d’Adèle. After becoming an essential figure in French cinema and a regular on the Cannes red carpet, Adele Exarchopoulos is set to attend a 2-week run with Le Règne Animal at the Un Certain Regard opening yesterday and the festival’s closing film on May 27, Elementary. , in which he voices Pixar’s fiery hero. That’s why the actress could offer such beautiful photos as this “kissing fish” from the steps.

And since we’re talking about love, how can we not fall in love with this beautiful shot of complicity? These two young actresses, Lomane de Dietrich and Susie Bemba, are on-screen partners in Catherine Corsini’s The Return, which has been selected in competition despite the controversy surrounding its production.

Posing on the steps, sending love (see photo above) and he… guns! Just for fun, as well as Ethan Hawke and the Strange Way of Life team, Pedro Almodóvar’s strange western short film was presented at the start of the festival. Half cowboy, half rock star, the actor lit up the steps.

While some play with the photographers, others show their refusal to attend the high mass in Cannes. Like the Cambodian actor Yubin Shin, who, despite his injury, crossed the 24 steps of the Palace of Festivals. On crutches, but in an evening dress (and not the easiest to wear!), to the end of the glamorous effort.

How did Yubin Shin get hurt? No information was released. In any case, we hope it will not be during the acrobatics performed by Tom Mercier in front of the photographers’ lenses and through the eyes of his partner Billy Blaine in the film. animal kingdom. A dangerous pose that is included in the pantheon of the most impressive stunts in Cannes!

And in order not to miss his shot, it is better to follow the cinema legend’s framing advice. Here’s Michael Douglas, guest of honor at the opening ceremony, where he received the Palme d’Or. Before this tribute, the actor-producer played with the photographers and offered Cannes posterity this beautiful cinematic correspondence framed by the cameraman.

We often have a sunny picture of the Cannes Film Festival. It will be forgetting about the sometimes capricious weather that forces you to take all precautions before posing so as not to spoil your wardrobe and makeup. This is Sean Penn heading to the Black Flies photocall under a double umbrella, including General Delegate Thierry Fremaux.

We saw him rejoicing and moved up the stairs and into the great theater. We also thought he was a bit grumpy and not at all inclined to play the promo game. Despite this, Harrison Ford Shaw did a film photo call, notably pretending to drop the Palme d’Or, arguably the greatest prize he’s ever been awarded (even more precious than the Arche d’Covenant or the Holy Grail). Faced with this cliché, we said yes, indie! (date reference)
