Just yesterday, it was announced that Quentin Dupieux’s film “The Second Act” has been chosen as the opening film for the festival.
Famous French actress Léa Seydoux will be attending the event, adding to the excitement surrounding the French gangster movie. Every year, one film is selected to open the Cannes Film Festival, and this year it’s “The Second Act.”
