Ep. 186: Cannes #14 with Manohla Dargis of The New York Times

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 2023 Cannes Film Festival series joyously concludes with our traditional grand finale: a discussion with Manohla Dargis, chief film critic of The New York Times, live from Cannes. Dargis reveals what might be her favorite film of the festival, and then we discuss too many titles to list here in full, ranging from Catherine Breillat’s Last Summer and Wang Bing’s Youth to Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City and Sean Price Williams’s The Sweet East.
