Summary
Cannes 2026 is in full swing, and the Film Comment crew is on the ground, ready to cut through the noise with dispatches, interviews, Podcasts, a special Cannes Critics’ Grid, and much more. This year’s edition is packed with highly anticipated premieres from Pedro Almodóvar, Valeska Grisebach, James Gray, Paweł Pawlikowski, and many more acclaimed filmmakers. For our fifth Podcast from the Croisette, Film Comment Editor Devika Girish is joined by critics (and programmers) Jordan Cronk, Adam Piron, and Ruun Nuur to dive into some mid-festival highlights: James Grey's buzzy crime drama Paper Tiger (3:15); Thai director Sompot Chidgasornpongse’s family road movie 9 Temples to Heaven (11:08); a selection of documentaries including Gabin , The Match , and The Story of Documentary Film (22:00); and the out-of-body experience that is Arthur Harari's thriller The Unknown (34:15).
