[HIGHLIGHTS] Actor Josh O'Connor falls in love in the skin of an archaeologist who looted tombs at the closing of a high-level Cannes

Aki Kaurismäki, Todd Haynes, Jonathan Glazer and Justine Triet among the favorites for the Palme d'Or. Wim Wenders and Alice Rohrwacher also among the candidacies.

The final day shone with a name of its own, that of the British actor Josh O'Connor, who in La Chimera plays a young archaeologist who raided tombs in Italy in the eighties. The Old Oak, by the British Ken Loach, proves again at 86 that his anti-cynical cinema still makes sense.
