This year's Cannes Film Festival is taking place in the wake of Trump´s vow to enact tariffs on international films.
Cannes, where filmmakers, sales agents and journalists gather from around the world, is the Olympics of the big screen, with its own golden prize, the Palme d´Or, to give out at the end.
Filmmakers come from nearly every corner of the globe to showcase their films while dealmakers work through the night to sell finished films or packaged productions to various territories.
'You release a film into that Colosseum-like situation,' says Brazilian director Kleber Mendonça Filho, who´s returning to Cannes with 'The Secret Agent, a thriller set during Brazil ´s dictatorship.
'You´ve got to really prepare for the whole experience because it´s quite intense - not very far from the feeling of approaching a roller coaster as you go up the steps at the Palais.'
Trump sent shock waves through Hollywood and the international film community when he announced on May 4 that all movies 'produced in Foreign Lands' will face 100% tariffs.
The White House has said no final decisions have been made. Options being explored include federal incentives for U.S.-based productions, rather than tariffs. But the announcement was a reminder of how international tensions can destabilize even the oldest cultural institutions.
The Cannes Film Festival originally emerged in the World War II years, when the rise of fascism in Italy led to the founding of an alternative to the then-government controlled Venice Film Festival.
In the time since, Cannes´ resolute commitment to cinema has made it a beacon to filmmakers. Countless directors have come to make their name.
This year is no different, though some of the first-time filmmakers at Cannes are already particularly well-known.
Scarlett Johansson (Eleanor the Great) and Harris Dickinson (Urchin) will all be unveiling their feature directorial debuts in Cannes´ Un Certain Regard sidebar section.
Scarlett's directorial debut Eleanor The Great, will be unveiled on May 20.
Over recent years the star-studded extravaganza has arguably won more attention for the outfits worn by its celebrity guests than the roster of feature films being screened on the Croisette.
But new nudity rules, devised for 'the sake of decency,' have been implemented at this year's festival.
According to organisers, the austere move is an attempt to stifle the celebrity trend for 'naked dresses' - namely provocative outfits that reveal considerably more than they conceal - on the red carpet.
'For decency reasons, nudity is prohibited on the red carpet, as well as any other area of the festival,' states a Cannes festival document.
'The festival welcoming teams will be obligated to prohibit red carpet access to anyone not respecting these rules.'
The surprise new policy features in a recent festival-goers charter - released with a series of outlines regarding expected public behaviour.
Classic little black dresses, cocktail dresses, pant-suits, dressy tops and elegant sandals, 'with or without a heel', will also be permitted.
While the decision to implement a more stringent policy will be a first, it is not known if French TV broadcasters, wary of airing nudity, played a role in its enforcement.
Major red carpet events, including the Cannes Film Festival, are aired in France by France Télévisions
Recently attracting more models and influencers than actors and filmmakers, the annual ceremony has seen an increase in risque red carpet fashion statements.
In 2021, American supermodel Bella Hadid bared her cleavage in a plunging black gown while attending a screening of Tre Piani (Three Floors).
She pulled a similar stunt three years later, with guests at the 2024 gala left speechless after she attended the premiere of Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice completely braless beneath a sheer brown evening dress.

She went on the record about the engagement in a cover story for British Vogue 's July issue, published Thursday, calling it 'very exciting.' The 29-year-old said she was obsessed with the ring Turner had made for her. 'It's so me. It's nice to know the person that you're going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well,' she told the magazine.

EXCLUSIVE Furious mothers hit out at Karen Millen after she said breastfeeding beyond 6 months is 'selfish' parenting - as designer is forced to apologise
Furious mothers have hit out at fashion designer Karen Millen after she said it was 'selfish' to breastfeed a child after they reach six months old. Millen, who is in her sixties, was forced to apologise after causing a storm with her comments on the Vanessa Feltz show on Channel 5 on Wednesday - in which she claimed children are developing 'attachment' issues from excessive breastfeeding. Taking to her Instagram account, she clarified her comments were 'not on the subject of breastfeeding' in general; but rather about children being nursed when they reach the age of three and older. Nonetheless parents who choose to breastfeed have been left insulted by the fashion designer's comments - insisting their children have benefited from being nursed past six months and taking aim at Millen for her 'unhelpful' comments. Georgia, a 30-year-old mother who lives in south east London with her partner Chris and two sons, has branded Millen's comments 'crazy' over a suggestion that breastfeeding mothers are 'selfish'. During an appearance on Vanessa Feltz on 5, Millen, who sold the fashion brand bearing her name in 2004, said: 'There's no benefit, is there, for a child to breastfed past six months?' NHS guidance recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of a baby's life. After that, breastfeeding should continue alongside solid foods for up to two years, as long as mother and baby are both happy. Millen added: 'I think it's quite a selfish thing, on the mother's part... I just think, that's not good, emotionally, for that child. I mean, what does that child do later in life? The attachment, like you say, it becomes an addiction and an addiction for that child too because they only know the boob. It's just not normal, is it?' Mother-of-two Georgia breastfed her eldest son, Teddy, two-and-a-half, until he was nine months old, while her youngest son Otis has just stopped nursing at seven months. Speaking to MailOnline, Georgia, who posts about motherhood on her TikTok account Getting Ready with Teddy, said: 'When I found out I was pregnant, I said I'd try breastfeeding for six weeks and see how I get on. They say the first six weeks is best because that's when you produce 'liquid gold'.' The term 'liquid gold' is used to refer to the first milk produced by a mother during pregnancy and just after giving birth. It tends to resemble a gold or yellow colour and is high in nutrients for the infant. Georgia continued: 'I really fell in love with [breastfeeding]. Not only was it so easy and convenient but it was also such a lovely bond to have.' After seeing Millen's comments about how nursing can affect the development of 'attachment' of children, Georgia posted a clip on TikTok showing Teddy running around with a carefree and independent attitude. She said: 'Kids are naturally drawn to their mothers, whether you're breastfeeding or bottle feeding because that's your mum. 'There have been times in Teddy's life where he's been a little bit clingy but there are no attachment issues. He's a happy and healthy boy.' After the first six weeks of breastfeeding Teddy had gone well, Georgia decided to try and continue nursing until he was a year old - but at around nine months her milk dried up. 'It was just a complete natural stop. I'd seen things about kids not wanting to wean off the boob so I was a bit worried about how he'd be with it. 'But we went cold turkey and he could not care less,' she said, joking: 'I thought, 'this boob has fed you for nine months'!' By the time Georgia's milk had dried up, Teddy was eating three to four meals a day, to the point where he 'didn't need' to be nursed so much anymore. Now, she says Teddy is an 'amazing eater' with a healthy appetite. Speaking about Millen's comments, Georgia said: 'I think the word 'selfish' was one of the craziest things I've ever heard. 'It's one of the least selfish acts you can do. It takes a toll on your body, you go through cracked nipples, leaking.' She added that breastfeeding mothers have the added responsibility of getting up for night feeds. 'I think going on national TV and saying that will have an impact on new mums who might be impressionable,' Georgia argued. Referring to the debate around breastfeeding versus bottle feeding, she said it's up to the mother, but that 'perceptions are changing' as the conversation is put into the spotlight - and comments like Millen's are not helpful. Rosey Davidson, a UK-based mother-of-three and paediatric sleep consultant, breastfed all three of her children, now aged 12, eight and three. Speaking to MailOnline, she described her complicated relationship with breastfeeding. 'I loved it and hated it in equal measure,' she said. 'It was deeply personal, physically demanding, sometimes joyful, sometimes frustrating – which I think is the case for many women.' She added: I've always tried to be realistic and non-judgmental in how I talk about it.' Addressing Millen's commets, Rosey said: 'Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to share their personal experiences of infant feeding.' She suggested Millen's verdict 'doesn't reflect the science' around breastfeeding, which 'promotes bonding and attachment through the release of oxytocin – the hormone that supports emotional connection and trust'. Rosey stressed there should not be a 'breast versus formula debate'; however she argued people 'stay quiet about breastfeeding out of fear of upsetting others'. 'The answer isn't to stop talking about breastfeeding. The answer is to offer better support, better education, and more honest conversations,' she said. 'But when you're given a public platform – especially on national television – there's a responsibility to ensure what you say is informed, respectful, and accurate. 'Misinformed opinions shouldn't be broadcast in a way that adds controversy to an already emotionally loaded topic. It's personal, yes – but we can't argue with science. Elsewhere on social media, mothers have defended their 'selfless' decision to continue breastfeeding their babies beyond six months. Kayleigh, a mother from the UK, posted a clip on TikTok in which she was breastfeeding her baby and wrote: 'The RAGE I felt when I saw this interview.' She branded Karen's message 'extremely uneducated and selfish'. Responding to Kayleigh's clip, one mother shared: 'Breastfed my second for 3.5 years! It wasn't selfish, it was the most selfless thing I've ever done.' Another mother, Jasmine Stevens, also posted a reaction clip aimed at 'normalising extended breastfeeding' in light of Karen's controversial interview. She explained: 'Breast milk adapts to your child's needs - even after infancy. It still provides nutrients and immune protection, adjusting when your toddler is sick. That's why the WHO recommends breastfeeding up to the age of two and beyond.' A third woman, Abbie, also hit out at Karen - who has since apologised for her comments - and said she's so 'sick of hearing people bashing breastfeeding' in the caption of her TikTok. Alongside a video of her breastfeeding her baby, set to the audio of Karen's interview, she wrote: 'Mums, if you're expecting or have just started your breastfeeding journey, PLEASE do not give people like this even a second to sit in your minds.' After the interview was broadcast on Wednesday, TikTok was flooded with videos addressed to Karen that showed women happily breastfeeding their babies past the six-month mark. Over on Reddit, users declared 'nothing is selfish about this act of pure love' while reiterating the need to dispel the societal stigma around extended breastfeeding. 'I didn't tell anyone and continued nursing mine until 27 months. If someone found out inadvertently their jaw usually dropped, further proving my point of keeping quiet,' one mother confessed. While another noted the word 'selfish' was the 'aggravating' factor, a third said: 'It's okay to be selfish about wanting to experience this with your child. 'We're allowed to enjoy motherhood.' One person declared a mother's decision to breastfeed is entirely her choice and should not be up for comment or criticism. 'When I see mother-shaming of any kind, I think, who cares? 'If that baby is happy, healthy, and loved, you're doing fine.' Mumsnet users also expressed that Karen's comments were 'icky' and in poor taste, with one person suggesting her apology also missed the mark. In a statement posted on her social media, Karen defended her comments by saying they were 'aimed at a three-year-old being breastfed' and claimed 'I do respect your choices' while addressing her critics. However, one Mumsnet user felt Karen simply reiterated her stance rather than using her platform to 'emphasise the guidance, the benefits' around breastfeeding. Some questioned why Karen was asked to weigh in on the debate in the first place, considering she is not a parenting expert. 'If people are going to spout stuff like this it should always be balanced with researched facts, because this could be damaging to young women still making up their minds about whether to breastfeed or not,' one comment read.

Levison Wood finds love! TV explorer, 43, hard launches his new girlfriend on social media - and she loves the outdoors just as much as he does
He was once described as Britain's most eligible bachelor, but now Levison Wood, has finally found love. The television adventurer, 43, took to Instagram on Thursday to hard launch the new lady in his life. The former Army officer-turned-author gushed: 'Over the years I've met many people on the road, but every now and then, someone comes along who doesn't just travel with you, but changes the pace of the journey entirely. This is Ana. 'We've been exploring a shared path together lately, one filled with plenty of adventures, challenges and commitment. 'An exciting new chapter awaits.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. He also shared some images of them together - one which included a picture of them canoeing, and another which saw them embracing in front of a vast mountain. Judging by the images, it's clear the pair share a mutual love for the great outdoors. Levison's followers were quick to throw their support behind the star, with one stating: 'Delighted to meet you Ana!! You two make a beautiful couple, good luck with all the travels and fun in your future xxx' Another added: 'Wishing you many adventures together' The 43-year-old has been open about his desire to find romance in the past, and even admitted to joining dating apps in the hope of doing so. In an interview with MailOnline in 2021, the former soldier said: 'I used dating apps: I don't see a problem with it. I use them when I want to use them. 'That is how people meet these days, isn't it? How else can you meet your woman?' Levison also opened up about exactly what his type is, saying: 'I don't like to put people into boxes. 'If a woman is intelligent, interesting and fun - that is the basis really. I don't really care what job they do or anything like that. 'It is also about being comfortable in somebody's company and enjoying spending time with them.' After lockdown Levison was the victim of stalking, with the perpetrator jailed for 13 months. Fiza Jabeen, a doctor, made Wood so fearful for his and his family's safety that he decided to sell his London home. But after moving - and after Jabeen was made the subject of a restraining order - she tracked him down once again, visiting Levison's home at the time in Richmond. The doctor was jailed for 13 months after admitting one offence of stalking and harassment having sent the TV personality 'explicit and unpleasant messages' via social media. Levison's most recent endeavour - after a career where he served as a Major in the army, became a best-selling author and produced a host of documentaries - saw him embark on a tour called Walking the World: A Life of Exploration and Adventure. The set of shows saw Levison delve into his 20 years as an explorer, during which he has witnessed the extraordinary, and tragic, on a number of occasions. During an expedition along the 4000-mile long Nile River from Rwanda and Egypt, a journalist travelling with the explorer named Matt Power was overcome with heat stroke and tragically died. Levison called his death 'a haunting moment that stays with me every day'. In his closest brush up with death, the 43-year-old almost lost his life during a trek across the Himalayas in 2015. He came face to face with tigers, crocodiles and even a cannibal on the remarkable journey but it was a short car ride which was almost his undoing. After being left with nowhere to sleep as night fell, Wood and his colleagues piled into an SUV and paid the driver to take them to the nearest town in search of a bed. As the vehicle wound its way along the treacherous mountain scape, its brake cable snapped throwing it off the edge of a cliff and into a ravine. Somehow Levison and all the other passengers survived, with the explorer later saying: 'We are lucky to be alive'.
