"Cannes 2023: Glazer's Surprise, Scorsese's Entry, and Kingly Banquets"
Cannes Film Festival's director Thierry Fremaux discusses this year's lineup, which includes a record six movies directed by female helmers in competition and a number of star-studded period movies. He expresses his hope to convince Martin Scorsese to vie for a second Palme d'Or and reveals that two or three movies are expected to be added to the competition next week. The festival reflects the state of world cinema production and is politically charged, with almost every film talking about societal problems.
