AwardsWatch - POLL: Who Will Win the 2015 Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or?

POLL: Who Will Win the 2015 Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or?

With the festival starting to wind down and the awards presentation this Saturday, it’s definitely time for Palme d’Or prediction poll. Competition seems to be pretty heated between Carol from Todd Haynes, Mountains May Depart from Jia Zhang-Ke and Mia Madre from Nanni Moretti. But there’s also room for Paolo Sorrentino’s Youth to take it or even the ultra-bleak Son of Saul from László Nemes. What about the Gyllenhaal connection with Denis Villeneuve? Will that color his vote? And how much impact will the dual votes of jury president Joel and Ethan Coen factor in? Will they agree and solidify a choice or disagree and spread votes?

All will be revealed on Saturday, May 23rd but the time for you to vote is now. Voice your thoughts on the other Cannes prizes awarded in the comments section.

Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013.

He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
