Cannes #10 with Jessica Kiang: Holy Spider, Corsage, Metronom, Showing Up
Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. The highlights from the 2022 Cannes Film Festival continue with critic Jessica Kiang, who has been filing reviews for Variety throughout the festival. We discuss Ali Abbasi’s controversial serial killer thriller Holy Spider, Marie Kreutzer’s Corsage, Alexandru Belc’s Metronom, and a film that showed on the last day of premieres, Kelly Reichardt’s Showing Up. Plus, a few of Kiang’s picks for the awards (which prove prescient...).
