Before the pandemic halted the festival last year, a star-studded comedy anthology about the final edition of literary magazine “The French Dispatch” was set to launch in this city. Anderson held off on releasing his film for another year, and it finally premiered in Cannes on Monday night.
A film festival was also held. When it comes to autism worship and movie stars, Cannes has it all, thanks in large part to the help of a publication dubbed “The French Dispatch.” Actors Timothée Chalamet and Bill Murray, actress Tilda Swinton, and actor Benicio del Toro, as well as director Paul Thomas Anderson, all came out in favour of Anderson’s film at what is almost certainly the largest premiere since the pandemic started.
A nine-minute standing ovation followed the film’s conclusion at Cannes’ Grand Théâtre Lumiere, which was the festival’s response. In addition to the festival’s famed enormous clapping bursts, the ovation should be stunning to observers: Does the audience truly stand and clap? Isn’t he going to get elderly at some point?
Cast and Composer
The cast and composer Alexandre Desplat arrived onto the red carpet in a big gold party bus, which was accompanied by motorcycle-riding French police officers. Anderson and his A-list posse arrived at the theatre for the film’s premiere to thunderous ovation after posing for group shots at the very bottom of the carpet.

Expat writers, under the guidance of an editor played by Murray, must finish their final collection for specialised monthly culture magazine in a Kansas daily newspaper’s special interest section, which is a “love letter to journalism,” according to the film’s synopsis. Instead of holding a regular press conference with his cast, Anderson opted out of allowing media to interview his cast members at Cannes.
Anderson briefly addressed the crowd after the presentation, stating, “I hope we come back with another one soon. “I appreciate it.”
At 36 Seconds in, The Following may be Heard:
Anderson can only take so much admiration before he starts to show signs of discomfort. Actress Lyna Khoudri and Chalamet, who portray French revolutionaries in the film, are standing to Anderson’s right. While the rest of the cast rises to their feet, Chalamet remains seated because no one else has risen.
After 45 seconds, Murray approaches the euphoric audience and introduces himself. When everyone else on set says, “I guess it’s time to get up,” it’s because Bill Murray needs to get up. This raises the entire group of people off of the ground.
