Cannes 2018: Small Lineup, No Selfies, No Netflix
A notable lack of major titles and star-power fuel and a considerable Asian presence are the defining traits of the lineup of the 2018 edition of the Cannes Film Festival. At the lineup announcement in Paris, Cannes artistic director Thierry Frémaux blamed protracted post-production issues for the absence of highly anticipated films from directors such as Mike Leigh, Xavier Dolan, and Jacques Audiard.
