A stunning surprise Palme D’Or winner: Ken Loach‘s The Wind That Shakes the Barley has taken the big prize, despite a nearly unanimous press consensus in recent days that the winner would be either Pedro Almodovar‘s Volver or Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu‘s Babel.
Best Director winner Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu
Loach’s was the first ’06 Cannes competition film I genuinely admired (I said something about it being Loach’s best in a long while, etc.) so there’s no argument from this quarter. (The N.Y. Times‘ Manohla Dargis, noting that Barley was the 13th time Loach had brought a film to Cannes, is saying “this year he got lucky.”) Loach in his acceptance speech called the film and the award “a little step in the British confronting their imperial history…maybe if we tell the truth about the past, we can tell the truth about the present.” I would have been a tiny bit happier about Babel taking the Palme D’Or, but that’s water under the bridge. The Cannes jury, indicating the strong degree of Babel support among them, handed the Best Director prize to Innaritu, as well as a special Superior Editing Award to Babel‘s Stephen Mirrione. The entire female cast of Volver (Penelope Cruz, Carmen Maura, Lola Duenas, Blanca Portillo, Yohana Cobo and Chus Lampreave) won an esemble Best Actress award, and nearly the entire male cast of Rachid Bouchareb‘s Indigenes (Jamel Debbouze, Samy Naceri, Roschdy Zem, Samy Bouajila and Bernard Blancan) won the Best Actor award. The Best Screenplay award went to Almodovar’s Volver, the Grand Prix award was handed to Bruno Dumont‘s Flandres, and the Jury Prize went to Andrea Arnold‘s Red Road.
And the Palme d’Or for best short film was awarded to the amazing Norwegian film “Sniffer”, by Bobbie Peers. Somehow, when all these awards are reported, people tend to edit OUT the short film award. Which is peculiar, as it most likely indicates the next Loach or I√ɬ±arratu or Almodovar. Or not. But still – it should be there.
I just looked over the short film winners all the way back to 1970 (I got bored after that) and I don’t see a single big name besides Jim Jarmusch, who was already well-established when he won in ’93. That’s not to say that they’re untalented or that none of them have done any good work since, but the short film Palme doesn’t seem to be a good predictor of the next generation of world-class filmmakers. One name I did recognize was Lynne Ramsay, but she never actually won the Palme (just a couple of Jury Prizes) and I would be loath to put her in the same category as Loach, Almodovar et al.
Good for Loach!
Hey Josh Martin,
I agree with your point, and what I meant was more in the direction of the fact that short films matter – most great directors have made great short films before they made any features. So it’s not necessarily a Golden Palm that makes you potentially great – but I’d like to stress the importance of the shorts. So it’s weird to see that particular award being omitted from the list of recipients when the news are being reported.
HA! Nobody knows ANYTHING. Good for Loach!
