FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Cannes 2021: Director Sean Baker makes lift-off with ‘Red Rocket’ • FRANCE 24 English” – below is their description.
He set the French Riviera alight in 2017 when the “The Florida Project” screened in the Directors’ Fortnight sidebar. Sean Baker is back in Cannes with his latest film “Red Rocket” in competition. Simon Rex plays Mikey, a washed-up porn star who charms, cheats and hustles his way to success. Once again, the filmmaker’s eye and ear for small-town America make for a touching and wry portrait of the margins of society.
