"Cannes 2023: Elder Statesmen, Hot Sales Titles, and Must-See Movies"

As the Cannes 2023 film festival approaches, sellers are cautious about overpricing films before gauging their theatrical value. Todd Haynes' "May December" has not been shown to distributors before the festival, with sellers hoping for an enthusiastic response from Cannes media and audiences to boost its sale price. Other titles for sale include "Firebrand," "Conclave," and "The Fisherwoman." The ongoing writers' strike has led to a rush assembly of packages, but it's unclear what impact they will have on the Cannes market.
