75th Cannes film fest ready to party as Covid rules end

CANNES –

“We are ready. The town hall has just redone everything — the whole place — so we hope it will go well,” said Jeremie Tripet, manager of “L’Avenue”, a bistro just off the main drag known as La Croisette. The much-delayed blockbuster sequel “Top Gun: Maverick” gets its European premiere on Wednesday, with Tom Cruise appearing on the Croisette for the first time in 30 years.

There’s a lot of excitement around the Elvis Presley biopic from Australia’s Baz Luhrmann, hoping to recreate the buzz he generated when he brought the can-can to Cannes with “Moulin Rouge!” 20 years ago. “Together we will have a great festival — we will think a lot about cinema without ever stopping thinking about Ukraine.”
