Saturday marks the final day of the Cannes Film Festival, with the usual closing ceremonies and awards presentations along with the out-of-competition premiere of Pixar’s “Elemental.” Let us all hope that Disney release earns better festival notices than Lucafilm’s “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.”
“Perfect Days” makes a perfect debut.
Perfect Days. Did Wim Wenders just make his best film since Until The End Of The World? Holy crap.

Wim Wenders’ “Perfect Days” was the hero of the day, earning strong notices and the now-standard standing ovation. TheWrap’s Nicholas Barber called it “an endearing, admiring portrait of a decent man.” The near-consensus was that Wenders had made his best narrative film in a very long time. The film has already been acquired by Neon, which has been on a shopping spree with “this film”Perfect Days, “Robot Dreams” and “Anatomy of a Fall.

When committing to his monstrous interpretation of Henry VIII in the Karim Ainouz film “Firebrand,” Jude Law really went the distance. “I thought it would have a great impact if I smelled awful,” Law said at a Monday press conference the day after the film’s Cannes Film Festival premiere. “Because you could smell (the real) Henry three rooms away.”
To embody the stinky Tudor with a rotting leg, the actor said he commissioned a stomach-churning scent from a British perfumer – a delightful mix of puss, blood, fecal matter and sweat, Law said with pride – and then dosed himself on set.
“Every camera operator was hurling,” added Alicia Vikander. “Jude, you were really wonderfully terrifying!”
If anything, that level of grandiose and gruesome detail sets “Firebrand” apart from other costume dramas.
