Teaser for Cannes favorite ‘A Prophet’

Written by

As I mentioned earlier, Jacques Audiard’s “A Prophet” is the clear critical favorite of the Cannes competition to date, with some calling it the one to beat for the Palme d’Or. If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about, this brief teaser offers a tiny but compelling taste. I can’t say I was expecting something quite so visceral from Audiard.

    Is it just me or do Cannes love pain and suffering more that the Academy does? Not that I believe the film will be bad.

    That had a quiet intensity to it I am curious at least.
