Cannes 2023: Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones on the red carpet • FRANCE 24 English

‘A forever star and an illuminating artist”, the words of actress Uma Thurman as she presented Michael Douglas with his Cannes lifetime achievement award. The 78-year-old actor was first at the festival with ’The China Syndrome’ in 1979 – but probably his most famous film presented was ’Basic Instinct’ in 1992. We look back at his career. Also on the programme with Eve Jackson, we’re getting red carpet ready with Helen Mirren, getting to know the president of the jury, ’Palme d’or’ winning director Ruben Ostlund, and having a first peek at Spanish director Pedro Almodovar’s queer cowboy short ’Strange Way of Life’, with Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal. #MichaelDouglas #Cannes #Cannes2023 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: Like us on Facebook: Follow us on Twitter: Discover the news in pictures on Instagram: Get the latest top stories on Telegram:
