Her new film was booed at Cannes


Guess she chose yet another lousy project.

Yes, some "artsy" French film snobs didn't care for a film, therefore it's a sure bet that the entire world will agree that it's a lousy project.

"The boos (not sure from who or where – certainly not my section) came afterwards giving critics here, many who follow the pack, license to kill and it's already begun with some unmerciful pans from trades and tweets. With the internet it can just be deadly. I totally disagree and was moved by the film so I am thankful there was no rude outburst during it to ruin it for me. People sat intently throughout the nearly two hour running time and there were no walkouts that I noticed. Walkouts are a sure sign a film is in trouble with this crowd, so I have to admit I was surprised by the boos at the end. (...)

But the damage is clearly done and the movie is likely to be tainted by misleading consumer headlines saying 'McConaughey's movie booed at Cannes'. Those headlines will conveniently leave out the fact that it was critics booing at a press screening. The fact is this film doesn't launch here until Saturday. I can't show you any photos yet because there aren't any photos of its stars and director walking the carpet, at a press photo call or conference. It hasn't happened yet. But the critics want their kill now."

Yeah, in France critics booed many movies in recent years, I read. Sometimes there can be one person who start booing and then it begins, I am afraid. How old usually are they? Youngsters? They are the worst ones imo because they do not have too much knowledge about movies.😣

Booed? How very sophisticated of those snobs. Really immature.

I guess it's like looking at clouds. You see one thing and I see another. Peace.

Although after seeing hers, perhaps they should.
