That person, of course, was Lorraine Kelly.

On a Friday, during the eleventh day of the Cannes Film Festival, the actress who was once a part of Coronation Street, aged 37, was spotted at Hotel Martinez prior to the L’Oreal event.

Title “From Peak to Valley,” a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s 1963 crime drama “High and Low,” features Denzel Washington as a prosperous record executive who is blackmailed for a $17.5 million ransom by kidnappers claiming they have taken his son. Upon entering the Grand Théâtre Lumière, Washington appeared puzzled yet amused when a photographer attracted his attention with a glittering quartz stone. A few moments later, the actor experienced both delight and shock as Cannes Festival Director Thierry Frémaux presented him an even more radiant token: an unsuspected Honorary Palme d’Or, accompanied by a retrospective montage tracing back to Washington’s debut film role in 1981’s “Carbon Copy.

Prior to the debut of “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning,” there has been some ambiguity in Tom Cruise’s statements concerning whether this film represents the last adventure for Ethan Hunt.

Back in the year 2023, I found myself captivated by a gripping crime drama that unfolded the real-life tale of a daring heist. A group of six heavily armed individuals made their way into the Brink’s-Mat security vault, only to stumble upon an astounding £26 million in gold bars.

Many actors enjoy performing their own stunts in films, but few are as dedicated and perhaps even fanatical about it as Tom Cruise. The Academy Award nominee has consistently gone above and beyond in this area (which will be awarded at the 2028 ceremony), but for nearly three decades, he’s been self-taught in various new skill sets so that one day he could perform tasks like a real space walk.

The blockbuster hit “Barbenheimer” overshadowed the previous “M:I” film (2023’s “Dead Reckoning”), which earned approximately $570 million. This is a significant drop of over $300 million compared to 2018’s “Fallout”. Despite its critical acclaim, the film’s underperformance and high production costs prevented it from achieving the necessary box office success. Yet, “Dead Reckoning” was deservedly lauded by both critics and fans, paving the way for this upcoming installment – the largest, most extravagant, and longest running “Mission: Impossible” movie yet.

The noise you just heard was like a collective sigh or groan from the graves of John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, and Sean Connery combined.
