The best films of the famous festival according to film blogger and author of the Telegram channel Cinemacritix Anastasia Sviridova.
It was not easy to choose the closest ones from the strongest program of this year, but... I tried! Here is my top 5 films of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.
«The Zone of Interest», dir. Jonathan Glazer
What it's about: about the life of the commandant of the Auschwitz camp and his family
Why it's in the top: the best and most accurate film about the Holocaust of all time
«La Chimera», dir. Alice Rohrwacher
What it's about: about a little person searching for their path
Why it's in the top: one without a hint of tear-jerking
We talk about the film «La Chimera», the new work of Italian director Alice Rohrwacher, which did not receive Cannes awards but won the hearts of audiences.
Open material
«Asteroid City», dir. Wes Anderson
What it's about: about the grief of loss in an Andersonian way
Why it's in the top: grief has never been spoken about so differently and boldly
«Monster», dir. Hirokazu Kore-eda
What it's about: about a conflict between two schoolchildren from the most different sides
Why it's in the top: because no event in life is painted in black and white, the art of looking without judgment is true wisdom
«Fallen Leaves», dir. Aki Kaurismäki
