Mescal stars as Lionel, a gifted singer from rural Kentucky, who leaves his family farm in 1917 to attend the Boston Music Conservatory. There, he meets David (O'Connor), a charming music student soon drafted into the war. In 1920, the two spend the winter in Maine, passionately collecting folk songs. As Lionel builds a successful life in Europe, he's continually drawn back to the profound, lingering impact of his brief time with David, eventually uncovering why their connection resonated so deeply.
Sentimental Value follows sisters Nora (Renate Reinsve) and Agnes (Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas) as they reconnect with their estranged father, Gustav (Stellan Skarsgård), a once-celebrated director. Gustav, still charismatic, offers stage actress Nora a leading role in what he hopes will be his triumphant comeback film.
However, when Nora declines, she's blindsided to learn he's handed her part to an eager young Hollywood star. Suddenly, the sisters are forced to confront their complicated relationship with their father, all while grappling with the chaotic arrival of an American star thrust into their already complex family dynamic. The cast also features Elle Fanning, Bjørn Alexander and Jesper Christensen.
Pressers and photocalls today at Palais des Festivals included Fuori; Un Simple Accident; The Disappearance of Josef Mengele; Homebound, and A Private Life.

Saoirse Ronan expecting first child
Saoirse Ronan is reportedly pregnant with her first child. In photos obtained by The Daily Mail on Sunday, the Irish actress is seen with a baby bump while walking with her husband Jack Lowden in Islington, London. Wearing a black bodysuit and leggings, Ronan had a grey sweatshirt tied around her waist. The 31-year-old first sparked pregnancy rumours when she stepped out in a silk maxi dress with lace inserts at the Louis Vuitton cruise 2026 photocall in Cannes, France last month. Representatives for the couple have not yet commented on the news. However, a source recently told The Irish Independent that the pair was "thrilled" to be expanding their family. The Little Women star and Scottish actor Jack started dating in 2018 and married in a private ceremony in Edinburgh in July 2024. And while speaking to British Vogue for the November 2024 issue, Ronan noted she had "always wanted" to be a mother. "I became successful when I was quite young. So it meant that, actually, by the time I found my partner, I'm now at the stage where if it happened, I would like to have a kid," she shared. "I feel fortunate enough that if I step out of this for a minute, I'm hopefully not giving it up forever. But, yeah, I've always wanted that."

Sydney Sweeney's New Soap Collab Will Be Made With 'Her Actual Bathwater'
Men like Sydney Sweeney. How much do they like her? Well, men's personal hygiene company Dr. Squatch is making a new soap with a secret ingredient: Sydney Sweeney's actual bathwater. For real. 'You kept asking about my bathwater after the @drsquatch ad … so we kept it,' Sweeney (Euphoria, The White Lotus season one) posted to her Instagram account on Thursday. Called 'Sydney's Bathwater Bliss,' the bricc (what Dr. Squatch calls its soap bars) is a 'very real, very limited-edition soap made with my actual bathwater,' Sweeney wrote. More from The Hollywood Reporter Sydney Sweeney, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, Michelle Yeoh Films Sell Wide at Cannes Sydney Sweeney Teases "Unhinged" 'Euphoria' Season 3 Sydney Sweeney, Halsey Get Violent While Hunting Down a Rare Artifact in 'Americana' Trailer Why do this? Well, you know why: because men are gross. So now they can cleanse themselves — well, their skin at least — with saponified oils (of olive, sustainable palm and coconut), shea butter, natural fragrance, Sydney's bath water, sand, mica, kaolin clay and sea salt. God knows what else they'll do with it: Dr. Squatch called Sweeney's bathwater 'one of nature's finest aphrodisiacs.' Don't try to check us on that 'men are gross' thing. First of all, I'm a man and I'm gross. But more relevant here are the multiple stalker fan letters to Dr. Squatch asking for this exact product — and definitely asking for worse things. Here's a relatively tame one: Unfortunately, there's a lot more where that came from; swipe right on the post. Clearly, the personal-care company (and Sweeney, whom Dr. Squatch calls a 'legend' for this) are leaning in. Days ago, the collab was teased by a Dr. Squatch post that read: 'Wanna take a shower with Sydney Sweeney?' Well, come June 6, you can. Sort of. The medium grit bar soap has 'refreshing notes of pine, Douglas fir and earthy moss,' per the manufacturer. Naturally, Dr. Squatch named the scent 'morning wood.' Sydney's Bathwater Bliss is 'a perfect combination of the two best places on the planet: The outdoors and Sydney Sweeney's bathtub,' the company continued. It appears that 100 creeps lucky winners will get a bricc made with Sweeney's actual bathwater. (To win one, you have to be '18+.' This bath soap couldn't get pornier.) The rest of you can buy a bar next week for $8. The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to Dr. Squatch and Sweeney's reps for more info.

Julie Bowen Thought She'd Be Replaced By Sydney Sweeney in ‘Happy Gilmore 2'
Nearly three decades after the release of Happy Gilmore, a sequel is on the way — and co-star Julie Bowen is still surprised she was asked to return. The first film follows Adam Sandler's unlikely golf hero Happy, with Bowen as Virginia Venit, the pro golf tour PR director who serves as Happy's love interest. The official trailer for Happy Gilmore 2 was released at Netflix's Tudum event on Saturday, as Bowen told The Hollywood Reporter when she heard it was happening, 'I thought, 'Well I won't be in it.'' More from The Hollywood Reporter Adam Sandler Swings Away in Full 'Happy Gilmore 2' Trailer - With One Classic Throwback Line Sydney Sweeney's New Soap Collab Will Be Made With "Her Actual Bathwater" Sydney Sweeney, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson, Michelle Yeoh Films Sell Wide at Cannes 'And that was OK — it was like Virginia Venit, it's been 30 years, he's got a hottie. He's got some little bitty on the side, like a cart girl,' she said of her assumptions of Sandler's character. 'As a matter of fact my children told me, before I was even told officially that there was a Happy Gilmore sequel, my now 18-year-old said, 'Mom, I hear they're doing a sequel and he's with Sydney Sweeney as a cart girl.'' It was indeed a rumor online that Sweeney had been cast in the film, and though it ended up not being true, Bowen joked, 'I went, I'm hurt and I so respect that move. Of course, why wouldn't you? So when I got the call that I was actually in it, I was like, 'Are you sure? Come on.'' There will be plenty of new additions to the sequel though, with Bad Bunny, Margaret Qualley, Benny Safdie, Travis Kelce, Kym Whitley and Eminem all making appearances. Bowen revealed she is a Bad Bunny superfan and was particularly excited to have him on set. 'Seeing Bad Bunny on set I was just like, 'Oh, I can't actually look you in the eye, I'm going to have to walk away,' and I did. I think he was offended and I had to circle back and now I made it worse,' she teased. 'I'm the kind of person who doesn't want to meet her heroes because I think I'm just going to be a jackass.' Happy Gilmore 2 starts streaming July 25 on Netflix.
