Cannes 2023: highlights from the first days
There have never been so many female directors in competition: seven of the 21 films were directed by women, including first-timers and long-time auteurs. But in the early days of the 76th film festival on the Cote d’Azur, the focus was on veteran stars like Harrison Ford, Johnny Depp and Michael Douglas. And fans flocked to the red carpet the first weekend of the festival when Leonardo DiCaprio made an appearance.
Check out some of the great moments from the first days of the festival:
DiCaprio was in Cannes for the premiere of his latest film with director Martin Scorsese, “Killers of the Flower Moon.” The true crime Western thriller also stars Robert DeNiro and Lily Gladstone, who also appeared in “Certain Women.” Based on a non-fiction book by American journalist David Grann, Scorsese’s three-and-a-half-hour epic earned a standing ovation and rave reviews from critics.
