10 Best Movies From Cannes 2015

4. Youth

Screened: In Competition Release Date: Unannounced What's The Story? A former composer tries to enjoy his retirement while an ageing director works on his testament work in the Swiss Alps. WhatCulture Says: "Youth is a film ostensibly about two old men dealing with their legacy in the face of the emergent spectre of death, but don€™t let that fool you into thinking the title is just some ironic contrasting. Paolo Sorrentino draws direct parallels between the beginning and end of life €“ two times of pure freedom with an indefinite end €“ leading to a film that winds up being as much about living as it does dying. It is, ultimately, Michael Caine€™s testament. He reaffirms his versatility as an actor and, in tackling an issue that can€™t help but be near the forefront of his mind, delivers something evocatively raw." Read the full review here.
