STORYLINE:
Emma Stone danced and yelled on the red carpet after the Cannes premiere of Yorgos Lanthimos’ "Kinds of Kindness."
The film is the Oscar-winning actor and Greek director’s follow-up to “Poor Things." Stone’s co-stars include Willem Dafoe, Jesse Plemons, Margaret Qualley, Joe Alwyn, Hong Chau, Mamoudou Athie and Hunter Schafer.
Described as a triptych fable, "Kinds of Kindness" follows a man without choice trying to take control of his life; a policeman whose wife was missing at sea, but has returned seeming a different person; and a woman searching for someone destined to become a spiritual leader.
Lanthimos also reunited with Efthimis Filippou to write the screenplay, marking their fourth collaboration together, following "The Lobster," "The Killing Of A Sacred Deer," and "Dogtooth."
"Kinds of Kindness" is one of 22 films in competition for the Palme d’Or.
