‘Monster’ Trailer: Hirokazu Kore-eda Heralded Cannes Drama Arrives In November
Heralded Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda did not win the top Palme d’Or prize at the Cannes Film Festival this year—that was in 2018 for “Shoplifters.” But for one, Kore-edais a Palme d’Or winner, not something most filmmakers in the world can say; for two, any time he delivers a film at Cannes, it’s in competition, and this year, with his follow-up “Monster,” the film was honored with the Queer Palm as well as the Best Screenplay award; nothing to sneeze at.
