Despite its six-minute standing ovation, Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood came up empty handed at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, with the coveted Palme d'Or going to Korean director Bong Joon-ho (Snowpiercer), for Parasite, with Mati Diop’s Atlantics winning the runner-up Grand Prix award.
Tarantino had hoped to nab the Palme d'Or, the same trophy he won 25 years ago for Pulp Fiction. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was extremely well received, but the dark comedy Parasite elicited flat-out raves, with jury president Alejandro González Iñárritu calling the Palme d'Or decision,"unanimous."
