The Bengali classic, known internationally as “Days and Nights in the Forest”, was screened under the Cannes Classics section—an honour reserved for timeless works meticulously preserved. This restoration, spearheaded by The Film Foundation's World Cinema Project, was completed in collaboration with L'Immagine Ritrovata, the Film Heritage Foundation (FHF), Janus Films, and the Criterion Collection, with funding from the Golden Globe Foundation.

Wes Anderson’s latest feature, “The Phoenician Scheme”, premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday night, drawing a six-minute standing ovation at the Lumière Theatre. Starring Benicio del Toro as a shady European tycoon and Mia Threapleton as his estranged daughter, the film marks Anderson’s fourth Cannes debut and is set for release on May 30 via Focus Features.

The 78th edition of the Cannes Film Festival is set to bring some of cinema’s most celebrated voices back to the Croisette, as new films from Wes Anderson, Ari Aster, and Richard Linklater have been officially selected to compete for the prestigious Palme d’Or, festival organisers announced on Thursday (April 9).

In a recent development, acclaimed filmmaker Wes Anderson has announced an impressive cast for his upcoming project, set to commence production later this year. The stellar lineup includes seasoned actors Bill Murray from "The French Dispatch”, Michael Cera of "Life & Beth”, and Benicio Del Toro, also known for his role in "The French Dispatch”.

The eclectic director, Wes Anderson returned to narrate four more of Roald Dahl’s stories with Netflix, since his critically acclaimed movie “Fantastic Mr. Fox” (2009). He uses his distinctively eccentric directorial approach to fuse fun with deep introspection.

As expected from the renowned director, the film is a visual feast, with every frame carefully composed.

Wes Anderson unquestionably has one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary cinema, and it turns out that he also has one in the advertising industry. Some of the best commercials of the twenty-first century are the result of the director being courted by businesses like American Express, Prada, Hyundai, and AT&T throughout the years to combine their products with his signature style.
