Malick, Almodovar, Dardennes – Deadline

UPDATE: The vast majority of Cannes Festival films for 2019 were unveiled this morning in Paris with names as expected as Pedro Almodovar (Pain and glory), Terrence Malick (A hidden life) and Ken Loach (Sorry we missed you) in the mix – see below the original post for the complete list. At the same time, there is still no confirmation of Quentin Tarantino's predictions. Once upon a time in Hollywood – again. The chief of the Fest, Thierry Frémaux, declared that it was not quite ready, but he hopes to add it. What he saw from the period film is "beautiful".

Overall, there were few surprises, but among the refreshing bends on the Champs-Elysees this morning, there are four female directors in competition, the highest number in a recent year. They include Jessica Hausner's Little Joe and Céline Sciamma's Portrait of a lady on fire.

We also learned this morning that Elton John would be present for Paramount's world premiere Rocketman, previously confirmed deadline for a place on May 16th. Alfonso Cuaron will also be on the Riviera to present a restored version of Stanley Kubrick's software. The brilliant – and, according to Frémaux, to "hang out" with his friend Alejandro G Inarritu, president of the Cannes jury this year.

See below the full list of titles announced today, including the Competition, Out of Competition, Special Sessions and Un Certain Regard streams (other films will certainly be added in the coming days) and come back for more information and our analysis of Cannes, Vintage 2019.

PREVIOUS, 01h57 PT: The programming of the 72nd edition of the Cannes Film Festival is unveiled this morning in the UGC Normandy theater on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. There are already a handful of titles in the official selection that the head of the festival, Thierry Frémaux, will announce today, while he could still have some surprises and he will probably retain some surprises in the coming weeks. before the coup de sending the Riviera on May 14th.

The festival has previously announced that Jim Jarmusch's zombie horror comedy The dead do not die, from Focus, has the honors of the opening night, in competition. And as Deadline has previously confirmed, Paramount's fantastic musical biopic, Elton John Rocketman The kickoff will be given on May 16th. Alejandro G Inarritu is president of the jury this year, which, as always, is full of speculation.

You can watch live, for the first time in English, below:

We do not expect to hear any Netflix or Amazon features included in the list, which marks the first time in four years without a movie from one or the other streamer. However, as reported by Deadline, at least one episode of Nicolas Winding Refn's Amazon series Too old to die young looking for a special location.

The most important question, which we may not be able to answer this morning, is whether Quentin Tarantino's behavior Once upon a time in Hollywood should begin May 21st. That would mark 25 years to the day since pulp Fiction seduced the Croisette before winning the Palme d'Or. The title Sony has been predicted in Cannes, but we will see if Frémaux gives up the goods in both directions.

Elsewhere, Terrence Malick's A hidden life (previously titled Radegund) is expected, as well as those of Pedro Almodovar Pain and glory, Bong Joon-ho's Parasite and Ken Loach Sorry we missed you, among many others. Céline Sciamma's Portrait of a lady on fire and the English language of Alice Winocour Proxima were also buzzed about.
