Cannes 2019 Day 6

A sailor’s life: Dennis Lim and Jonathan Romney join to discuss premieres from Robert Eggers, Corneliu Porumboiu, and Albert Serra

Welcome back for day 6 of our podcast from Cannes. We’re kicking the week off with guests Dennis Lim, director of programming at Film at Lincoln Center, and Film Comment contributor Jonathan Romney. They join FC Editor-in-Chief Nicolas Rapold for a discussion of three Cannes sensations: Corneliu Porumboiu’s dream-like The Whistlers, Albert Serra’s “radical,” La Liberté, and Robert Eggers’s “intensely physical” The Lighthouse.

Don’t miss all of our daily Cannes podcasts and festival coverage.
