Director James Mangold Appreciated the French culture of embracing the classics, helming Cannes as a wonderful platform he said “These are things where you’re taking your guidance from the classics, that’s something that’s really appreciated by the French about American cinema. In many ways, they revere the old pictures more than even the audience in the United States do. That makes it a really wonderful platform.”

Additionally, out of 21 films competing for Palme D’or, seven are directed by women, the highest in eight decades of Cannes. The festival will be concluded with Pixar’s animated film Elemental which is set to release in theatres in June.
