The controversy of the day is the one triggered, unwittingly, by Pio Marmaï.

The actor, who plays a yellow vest in the very successful 

La Fracture

by Catherine Corsini, cited a line of his character at a press conference.

"Macron, I would like to go to his place and bang his face off" he said, before expressing his opinion, much more moderate, on his desire to simply have a conversation with the President of the Republic. .

Some did not fail to take the quote out of context and even the ill-informed former Minister of the Interior Christophe Castaner seasoned the poor actor on Twitter by accusing him of calling for violence and vulgarity.

Pio Marmaï, "very affected" according to his entourage interviewed by

20 Minutes

, left on a shoot deeply hurt by what was only a misunderstanding.

Catherine Deneuve, luminous

Catherine Deneuve plays a mother who has to deal with the incurable disease of her child, played by Benoit Magimel in the upsetting

Of his lifetime

by Emmanuelle Bercot, screened out of competition.

The 70-year-old actress received great applause before and after the screening.

But above all, she appeared radiant and totally recovered from the vascular accident which had interrupted the shooting of the film.

“I was very moved to see the affection people have for me,” she said at a press conference, after briefly removing her bright pink mask.

Sean Penn, papa hen

He was very proud, Sean Penn to present the touching

Flag Day

, in competition.

It is not only because he has reserved for himself a tasty role of mythomaniac father.

It's also because he's directing his own daughter, Dylan Penn, as the hero's daughter there.

“The first face I had in mind for the role was Dylan,” he said.

But there is no similarity other than our mutual love in the relationship between the characters in the film and ourselves in life.

Cannes is committed to the climate, the proof

Thierry Frémaux had announced this by creating, among other things, a new Cinema for the Climate section: the Cannes Film Festival will become increasingly green.

This is what the signatories of the Tribune pour le climat of the # Onestprêt movement, which appeared in

Le Monde 

during a press conference, have been confirmed.

"We can no longer speak of ecological problems but of survival", hammered Louis Garrel, very involved in the movement called # Onestprêt.

Cyril Dion, co-director of

Demain

, for his part wanted to see more cinematographic fictions that do not just show apocalyptic situations.

"It's time to make films that offer solutions to get out of it," he said to thunderous applause.

NTM at the top of the Marches

It was party time on the Steps when JoeyStarr rode them with

Audrey Estrougo's

team of

Supremes

.

A excited audience awaited the film crew which evokes the genesis of the NTM group.
