Ep. 242: Cannes 2024: Arnaud Desplechin on Filmlovers! and recent favorites Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 77th edition of the Cannes Film Festival opens this week, and for my 2024 series of Cannes episodes, I begin by talking with director Arnaud Desplechin about his new documentary that’s premiering at Cannes, Filmlovers! (aka Spectateurs!). Desplechin’s Kings and Queen is a 21st-century classic, and a formative viewing experience for me, so it was a pleasure chatting about how movies first seized his imagination, about interviewing movie lovers of all stripes, the Garry Marshall movie he insisted on presenting at the cinematheque just before Cannes, reflecting on tragedy through movies, and the last movie he saw (and purchased).
