The 79th Cannes Film Festival has come to an end, the Competition awards have been handed out, people have stood and clapped to their heart's content, and some of the most exciting films have debuted on the international scene.

It was a first for The Rolling Tape to be live on the ground at the Palais as our Co-Editor-in-Chief Danny Jarabek and our amazing contributor Nandita Joshi trekked to the festival and consumed cinema like no one else. A lot of sleepless nights, a lot of early morning battle royales for online film tickets, and lots of movies to discuss. 

Now that they have returned, we provide a formal recap of the festival from what's it's like to be in Cannes to a detailed rundown of all the films we saw as a team.
