The red carpet at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival has blessed us with naked dresses, pantsuits, and poufy gowns. But no outfit has had a backstory quite like Thandie Newton’s. The Westworld star, who also plays Val in Solo: A Star Wars Story, attended the movie’s premiere at Cannes in a custom Vivienne Westwood Couture dress. Upon closer inspection, you can make out a special print on her gown: The design featured all of the black characters that have appeared in the Star Wars franchise. Newton’s stylist, Erin Walsh, even shared on Instagram a sketch of the eco-friendly gown and some more information on how the process came about. As Walsh points out, Newton is the first black woman to appear in a Star Wars movie in a leading role.
The Japanese director Hirokazu Kore-eda won the Palme d’Or at the 71st Cannes Film Festival for his superb “Shoplifters,” about a family of thieves and throwaways living on the margins in Japan. Mr. Kore-eda accepted the award, the festival’s highest honor, at the end of a sober event that was shaken up 30 minutes in when the Italian director Asia Argento delivered a shattering rebuke to the festival and the movie industry from the stage. “In 1997, I was raped by Harvey Weinstein here at Cannes. I was 21 years old. This festival was his hunting ground,” Ms. Argento said. She predicted he would never again be welcomed here by a film community that once embraced and enabled him.
