The forecasts are more uncertain than ever before the Palme d’Or
There are too many favorites for one film to stand out. But we would see the supreme reward go back to Marco Bellocchio.

They are 21 contenders but only one of them will take the palm on Saturday evening. And to find out which one, you will have to turn to the jury, chaired by the elusive Ruben Östlund, himself flanked by jurors as unpredictable as Julia Ducournau, Palme in 2021 for “Titanium”, or the actor Paul Dano. In this equation with 21 unknowns, some outsiders should nevertheless stand out. And our thoughts go to veteran Marco Bellocchio, 83, in the running this year with “Rapito”, which would even make for a very fine Palme d’Or, especially since the Italian filmmaker, who has often competed in Cannes, never had such a reward.
