Cannes and its absurd standing ovations came to an end, finally, handing out the second-biggest prize to *Sentimental Value* \-- the Joachim Trier movie starring Elle Fanning and Renate Reinsve -- and the Palme d'Or to *Une Simple Accident* (which I've seen translated to It *Was Just An Accident*), the first film by [Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jafar%5FPanahi?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io#2010%E2%80%93present:%5Ffurther%5Ffilm%5Fcareer) since his release from prison. Cate Blanchett popped by to help out with the festivities, and we got a few more faces of L'Oreal, like Simone Ashley and Viola Davis. It's a starry finish to a starry 10 days, in which the new dress code rules seemed totally beside the point and at times ignored, making you wonder why they even bothered.
