For Episode 393, I am joined by Josh Parham on the Croisette in France for the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.

There are no weekly poll recaps or answers to your fan-submitted questions, but we hope you enjoy hearing about what movies you have to look forward to with another recap to come for the second week of the festival next week! Thank you, and enjoy!
