Ep. 183: Cannes #11 with KJ Relth-Miller on Cannes Classics including L’Amour Fou and Skeleton of Mrs. Morales Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 2023 Cannes series continues, with episodes recorded live in Cannes! For the latest discussion, I was delighted to welcome returning guest K.J. Relth-Miller, who heads the film program at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. She surveys Cannes Classics, the festival’s robust program of new restorations and film documentaries, making their world premieres. Titles include L’Amour Fou (1967) from Jacques Rivette (which was an unofficial opening film for many attendees) and Skeleton of Mrs. Morales (1959) from Mexican director Rogelio A. González, and we reflect on the late Godard’s newest, Trailer of the Film That Will Never Exist: Phony Wars. Stay tuned for more episodes with a delightful array of brilliant critics.
