Buenos Aires — Ruben Östlund’s “Triangle of Sadness,” Lukas Dhont’s “Close” and the Dardenne brothers ‘Tori and Lokita” screen at this week’s Cannes Festival Film Week in Buenos Aires, which runs Dec. 28 to Dec. 3.
The Week saw another highlight this Tuesday in a masterclass by French actor Vincent Lindon (“The Measure of a Man”), this year’s Cannes jury president, who spoke with bracing honesty about he art and reality of acting in films.
Lindon was interviewed on stage by Argentina’s Santiago Mitre, whose Argentine Oscar entry, “Argentina, 1985,” has had an extraordinary box office run in Argentina this fall, scoring 1.2 million admissions, despite playing simultaneously in the latter stage of its run both in cinema theaters and on Amazon’s Prime Video.
Further titles in the six-pic Film Week lineup take in Jerzy Skolimoswski’s “Eo,” Park Chan-wook’s “Decision to Leave,” and “Boy from Heaven” from Tarik Saleh.
