This year’s Cannes Film Festival just got a little bit bigger. Organizers have revealed six more movies that have been added to the official lineup, but sorry, you won’t find the latest from Terrence Malick in here.
Instead, the choices span international cinema with highlights including: “In The Name Of My Daughter,” starring Guillaume Canet and Catherine Deneuve, from France; Argentinian western “El Ardor” starring Jury member Gael Garcia Bernal and Hungarian film “White God” from director Kornél Mundruczó.
Check out the official press release below. The Cannes Film Festival runs from May 14th to 25th.
