Whoever worried this year’s Cannes Film Festival was short on stars only needed to take a stroll through the Vanity Fair Party on Saturday night at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, which looked like the Oscars in May.

‘The Rover’ Cannes Press Screening – Reviews + Media Reactions 3 comments
Here are some reviews and media reactions from the ‘The Rover’ Press Screening this morning
From Variety
Tipping its hat to George Miller’s “Mad Max” trilogy while striking a more somber, introspective tone, Michod’s sophomore feature isn’t exactly something we’ve never seen before, but it has a desolate beauty all its own, and a career-redefining performance by Robert Pattinson that reveals untold depths of sensitivity and feeling in the erstwhile “Twilight” star. A commercial challenge due to its mix of explicit violence, measured pacing and narrative abstractions, the pic should earn the warm embrace of discerning genre fans and further establish Michod as one of the most gifted young directors around. Pearce is fiercely impressive here as a man who gave up on the human race even before the latest round of calamities, and if there are occasional glimpses of the kinder, gentler man he might once have been, we are more frequently privy to his savage survival instincts. But it’s Pattinson who turns out to be the film’s greatest surprise, sporting a convincing Southern accent and bringing an understated dignity to a role that might easily have been milked for cheap sentimental effects. With his slurry drawl and wide-eyed, lap-dog stare, Rey initially suggests a latter-day Lennie Small, but he isn’t so much developmentally disabled as socially regressed — an overprotected mama’s boy suddenly cast to the wolves — and Pattinson never forces or overdoes anything, building up an empathy for the character that’s entirely earned. He becomes an oasis of humanity in this stark, forsaken land.

Great article by LA Times on ‘The Rover’ + David Michôd talks about the movie and Robert Pattinson 2 comments
Here’s a really great article by LA Times – ‘The Rover,’ shot in the scorching outback, chills the heart and soul
Film directors fretting on the set is nothing new, but David Michod, whose “The Rover” will debut at the Festival du Cannes on Saturday, had a concern that was considerably out of the ordinary: “I worried,” he says, “that the actors would die.”
Michod’s first feature since 2010’s knockout “Animal Kingdom,” “The Rover” stars Guy Pearce and Robert Pattinson and was filmed in the South Australian outback, where temperatures in the hottest time of the year are literally inhumane.
“We had a technical scout the week before we started shooting and it felt dangerous, the temperature was 50 degrees Celsius, which is 122 degrees Fahrenheit,” the director recalled while in the cool interior of a posh hotel bar.
“You couldn’t work in that kind of heat, if you stood outside for more than 20 minutes you could start to die. … The producers [and I] had a short conversation about that, it was short because we didn’t want to contemplate that possibility. Fortunately, the temperature during shooting went down to 40 to 45 degrees Celsius [104-113 Fahrenheit.] That sits within the spectrum suitable for human life.”
