Cannes has officially started its 75th edition, and we are here to break down all the last-minute news and notes as the proceedings get underway! The pomp! The circumstance! The future AMC+ Exclusives! All get a hearing before we turn to Emilio's impending trip to the South of France, talking about his hopes for his Cannes experience and providing a loose live commentary for Agnes Varda's 1958 tourism short Du Côté De La Côte (watch along on Criterion Channel! Or don't!)
