Ruben Ostlund
Ruben Ostlund will head this year’s competition jury for the Cannes International Film Festival, organisers announced on Tuesday. The Swedish director’s Triangle of Sadness is a capitalist satire starring Woody Harrelson, Harris Dickinson, Dolly De Leon and the late Charlbi Dean. It won Cannes’ Palme d’Or for best film last year. It has become Ostlund’s most commercially successful film, with a box office of $24 million and counting. After sweeping the European Film Awards, winning Best Film, Best Director and Best Screenwriter honours for Ostlund, as well as the Best Actor honour for co-star Zlatko Buric, Triangle of Sadness also picked up three Oscar nominations, for Best Film, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay.
