Top 10 Cannes🇫🇷 ’23 films

CANNES, France — The weather was mostly cool and rainy at the 76th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, which is no great hardship when you’re spending most of your days in darkened movie theatres.

The weather app on my phone often added the alarming advisory “moderate avalanche warning,” which seemed ominous but also ambitious for the gentle hills surrounding this Riviera waterfront city.

I prefer to think of the avalanche in terms of the high volume of grand cinema experienced during the festival’s 12-day run, which wraps Saturday with the awarding of the Palme d’Or and other prizes: https://bit.ly/3MJlxdC 🌓
