In another piece, we also confirmed that Ruben Ostlund’s “Triangle of Sadness” and Park Chan-wook’s “Decision to Leave” have been already accepted as competition titles. Ok, so, what else? That’s a question I’ve been getting these last few weeks, and my honest answer is that I just don’t know. It’s already something to have three Cannes certainties at such an early stage of the year, and all we can do is speculate, spitball etc .. There are definitely some no-brainers picks that will no doubt end up showing up this year, either via the film’s director publicly stating their intentions to go to Cannes or, in the purest sense of the term, intel … and I’ve been hounding that intel for weeks now.
