At Cannes, it’s all about the standing location. 😁 What’s this, the third story about the length of time people have clapped a film at this year’s event?
I don’t think everyone realizes that at Cannes every film gets a standing ovation.
Megalopolis got booed, and then got seven minutes.
Why the F does this man deserve any more airtime than he already gets? It’s too much already.
But one insider says audiences may find “The Apprentice” to be an oddly humanizing portrait of a man vilified by half of the country.
While the same man seeks to dehumanize a big chunk of the country.
Yeah, not sure this guy deserves a movie, even one that doesn’t try to polish a turd very much.
If it helps, Trump hates this movie and has threatened to sue the creators already. Supposedly it showcases him raping his ex wife at one point and a lot of other terrible shit.
If he didn’t want people to make movies about him raping his ex wife he probably shouldn’t have raped his ex wife.
He deserves a prison cell and a spot on a chain gang.
“It’s time to make movies political again.”
Bruh
Only 8 minutes standing ovation is the Cannes equivalent of throwing your shit at the screen.
I’m serious
So this is how democracy dies.
With standing ovation.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
One of the most anticipated moments of the 77th Cannes Film Festival finally arrived Monday night with the world premiere of the Donald Trump drama The Apprentice, starring Sebastian Stan as a young version of the real estate mogul in his pre-MAGA days.
Only Francis Ford Coppola’s wildly ambitious swan song Megalopolis had inspired more pre-premiere chatter and curiosity at this year’s edition of the glamorous French film festival.
Directed by acclaimed Iranian-Danish filmmaker Abbasi and written by Gabe Sherman, The Apprentice explores Donald Trump’s rise to power in 1980s America under the influence of the firebrand rightwing attorney Roy Cohn.
After the screening, Abbasi warmly hugged his cast members and Cate Blanchett, sitting just in front of the director and crew, was the first to jump up and applaud, embracing Bakalova.
Abbasi also held up his cell phone to the cameras during the standing ovation to show a shirtless selfie of Strong in costume and seemingly backstage from his play in New York.
By Monday night, The Apprentice still didn’t have a U.S. distributor in place, although it sold earlier in the Cannes festival to StudioCanal for the U.K. and Ireland, where it will be released theatrically later this year.
The original article contains 666 words, the summary contains 197 words. Saved 70%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Oh, what a surprise! Shocked Pikachu face! The Apprentice | Donald Trump’s legal team threatens legal action over movie
But the director isn’t fussed. Cannes: ‘The Apprentice’ Director Shrugs Off Trump Lawsuit Threat: “Everybody Talks About Him Suing a Lot of People, They Don’t Talk About His Success Rate”
It’s a real fantasy that they got an actor to play him who doesn’t look like a fucking freak of nature.
Yeah, but does it have a scene where he grabs someone by the pussy?
So basically the funeral of the Cannes film festival as a legitimate venue for creative, artful films
God i hate the whole: people clapped for x minutes at cannes. It’s auch a circlejerk.
