The red carpet, Megalopolisworld stars and Francis Ford Coppola. The third evening of Cannes 2024 is his, that of the director of some of the masterpieces of international cinema who, 25 years after the Palme d’Or for Apocalypse Now, he tries again but with his family by his side. There is also on the red carpet, which rolls out for the most awaited 12 days of the year Talia Shirehis sister and a very talented actress known for the role of Adriana in the saga of films dedicated to Rocky Balboa.
The Coppola family reunited on the red carpet, rating: 10
The Cannes Film Festival achieved a miracle. Not that this is its function, of course. Yet, see the Coppola family gathered on the red carpet – extended to relatives by blood and those by heart – it was the caress that was needed in these days of great uncertainty. It was he who gave the right lesson, Francis Ford Coppolawho is taking part in the event this year after the profound pain of the loss of his wife Eleonor, who was at his side in life and work (she was a very good documentary director).
Despite the recent mourning, he was there in front of his audience to present thelast work that bears his signature. A sign that yes, sometimes it is necessary to put ourselves aside to show respect to those who await us but also to honor the commitments made in an entire life dedicated to cinema. And so, he put on a nice suit, took his cane and presented himself in front of the photographers, who he greeted elegantly, taking off his hat. With him, in addition to his sister Talia Shire, also his nephew Robert. His arrival was among the most anticipated of this edition of the event and he certainly did not disappoint expectations. When they say: be a star.
Claudia Gerini Italian diva, rating: 9
A very rich red carpet, the one dedicated to the third evening of the Cannes Film Festival, which also saw one of our most beloved actresses parade. We are talking about Claudia Gerini, on the red carpet with a long dress and a sparkling flower appliqué which she accompanied with a wonderful smile with which she illuminated the scene.
A true diva of the international red lanes, the Roman actress greeted those present by blowing a kiss in favor of the photographers, while the chosen dress it doesn’t do justice to its beauty which is always brighter. In short, Cannes also speaks a bit of Italian thanks to one of our timeless divas, always impeccable on every occasion (here are all the looks from the third evening).
Araya Alberta Hargate, too much is out of place: vote 5
Beautiful is beautiful, but the dress chosen for this evening did not seem suitable for an occasion of this magnitude. Black lace is decidedly bold for the red carpet, especially if the see-through effect is too see-through and not very concealed. There exposed lingerie it’s a gamble, even the wedges, although there was really nothing vulgar about it. The decision to wear a look like this is still perplexing, but we know: excess is often the hallmark of the most anticipated, loved and followed red carpets in the international cinematographic universe. 5 of encouragement.
Dimitri Rassam with his mother Carole Bouquet, rating: 8
We really don’t know how things went between film producer Dimitri Rassam and Charlotte Casiraghi, from whom he separated after years of love. Yet, his gaze seemed lost and disoriented, if it weren’t for the safe arm of his mother who supported him on the most difficult red carpet of recent months. In short, we really like mothers very much: her mother, then her mother, is really beautiful. Very elegant in her black dress with military lacing, she smiled at the photographers with great ease. On the other hand, we couldn’t expect anything different from her.
Rebecca Mir, the triumph of latex, rating: 7.5
A mermaid dress, purple, in latex, with a plunging neckline and a slit that – too – makes heads turn. Rebecca Mir truly left nothing to chance and decided that yes, the time had come to dare. And so, on the red carpet she arrived as the absolute protagonist and – like a mermaid – she enchanted those present with a train that seemed glued to the carpet.
The look is worthy of a great early diva, while the choker necklace helped make one of the most eye-catching looks of the third evening of the Cannes Film Festival even more aggressive. The long brown hair is left loose on the shoulders to give even more emphasis to the dress which really needs no further description.
Grace VanderWaal, the veiled lady: vote 7
Vintage tulle and veil on the head of NK Bride for Grace VanderWaal who walked the red carpet at Cannes 2024 representing the cast of Megalopolis. The dress is very particular and very rich, especially with embroidery, but the particular touch is given by the covered head which made it different from all the others. Her beauty is ethereal, while the dress looks real apt for her petite figure and her delicate features that make her truly sweet. Maybe a hint of retro, but that’s enough to attract everyone’s attention.
Aubrey Plaza in satin, rating: 8
A long, white, satin dress with a large cord from which the very light skirt falls. Aubrey Plaza she is truly beautiful, radiant, with two magnetic eyes capable of capturing the attention of even the most distracted. We really like the Tiffany necklace trick: the color is in fact used to highlight the very particular cut of the dress which fits her perfectly. It wasn’t difficult, given her beauty.
Lawrence Fishburne, Francis Ford Coppola, Giancarlo Esposito, what a trio: rating 10
We couldn’t help but end this great roundup with a exceptional trio. Lawrence Fishburne, Francis Ford Coppola, Giancarlo Esposito deserve the second 10 of this evening and not only for what they represented for world cinema but also for deep friendship that binds them.
After all, the Cannes Film Festival is also this: a meeting of people, ideas, passions and – why not – the right moment to show off that pinch of vanity that on other occasions would seem out of place. What can I say, truly splendid.
