| We Treat Women Too Well featuring a woman in a wedding dress holding a gun and some renegades |
On Friday May 16, Clara Bilbao's Spanish black comedy We Treat Women Too Well will screen, and on Saturday, it will be the turn of the French, with a screening of rom-com Diary Of A Fleeting Affair.
We Treat Women Too Well is set against the backdrop of Franco's rise to power as a group of ‘Maquis’ rebels get more than they bargain for after taking a bride-to-be hostage. The film features Spanish big-hitters including Carmen Machi, Antonio de la Torre, Luis Tosar and Julián Villagrán.
Emmanuel Mouret's Diary Of A Fleeting Affair stars Sandrine Kiberlain as a single mum and Vincent Macaigne as her married lover who find their decision to keep things strictly physical is not so easy to keep.
Both films will include showreels and introductions of what and who is hot on the Riviera as well as the feature film followed by a glass of rosé or two.
The 77th Cannes Film Festival runs from May 13 to 24 and we'll also be bringing you news and reviews from the Croisette.
