Ep. 115: Cannes #1 with Eric Hynes: The 2022 Edition! + Coupez!

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. I’m back at the Cannes Film Festival after a pandemic absence and couldn’t be more delighted to share the latest and greatest in films with you. For the kick-off episode, I’m joined by Eric Hynes, curator of film at the Museum of the Moving Image and writing about Cannes for Reverse Shot. We review the lineup of the 2022 edition, highlighting some titles and filmmakers, and also share a quick look at the opening film, Coupez!, from director Michel Hazanavicius (whose film The Artist won the Academy Award for Best Picture).
