Cannes Jury President Ruben Östlund Prefers Palme d'Or Over Oscar and Supports Hollywood Writers' Strike

Ruben Östlund, the Swedish director and two-time Palme d'Or winner, stated that he would prefer another Palme d'Or at Cannes over an Oscar. He is currently serving as the president of the official competition jury at the Cannes Film Festival. While there are a record seven films directed by women in this year’s competition, that’s still less than half of the overall section. Östlund believes that the problem is not only gender but also class, as financial stress often makes working-class filmmakers discontinue their careers.
