8. Flats are allowed on the red carpet – or are they?
8.身着平底鞋禁止入场,是吗?
The biggest story of the festival had nothing to do with films. It was about shoes. On Tuesday trade magazine Screen reported that a group of women had been denied access to a screening of Todd Haynes’ Carol because their footwear – flat shoes with rhinestones – was unsuitable for the red carpet. Further tales came tumbling forth, social media erupted in indignation and soon enough we were soon dealing with a fully fledgedscandale. The Cannes press office rushed out a garbled statement: “Rules have not changed throughout the years (Tuxedo, formal dress for Gala screenings) and there is no specific mention about the height of the women’s heels as well as for men’s. Thus, in order to make sure that this rule is respected, the festival’s hosts and hostesses were reminded of it.” Well, that cleared that up. Perhaps wisely, press screenings are exempt from any dress code: scruffy journalists are free to ascend the Palais’ steps in flip flops and trainers.
本届电影节最大资讯与电影无关,而是关于鞋子。据《银幕日报》报道,上周二 9. Never trust the polls
9.千万别相信民调
It was the lesson of the UK general election and it’s the big ‘takeaway’ from Cannes too: prediction is a mug’s game. All week the chatter was that Todd Haynes’ lesbian love story Carol was set to collect the Palme d’Or – or that Holocaust drama Son of Saul from first-time director László Nemes would triumph. In the last few days a consensus began to form around The Assassin from Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-Hsien; according to British bookmakers, The Lobster was the one to beat. But when Jacques Audiard’s Dheepan was announced as the winner, the response was a collective “really?” For all the pundits, critics’ panels, insider gossip, statistics and God knows what else, few had picked it. Oh well: c’est la vie.
