Julianne Moore is more
To work with David Cronenberg, Julianne Moore was prepared to do anything, even mock the glamour associated with her. In Maps to the Stars the American actress plays a crazily nymphomaniac and neurotic star in a pitiless Hollywood. A pity the auburn bombshell wasn't there in person to accept her Best Actress award.


Kristen Stewart rising fast
For Clouds of Sils Maria, Olivier Assayas gave the role of Valentine, assistant to the star played by Juliette Binoche, to Kristen Stewart, the Twilight vampires' ex-girlfriend. In turn confidante, coach and scapegoat, the young American actress delivers a mind-blowing performance in an intelligent film packed with high-octane thinking and dialogues.


Revelation: Antoine-Olivier Pilon
Already famous in Canada, the 16-year-old who plays the lead in Mommy had the Croisette literally speechless at his performance as an unhinged teenager madly in love with his eccentric mother. Antoine-Olivier Pilon (remember that name) carries the two and a quarter hours of Xavier Dolan's film with never a false note.
