Leonardo DiCaprio’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ gets 9-minute standing ovation at Cannes
Veteran filmmaker Martin Scorsese’s ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ recently premiered to the biggest standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival so far. The 3 hour and 26 minute drama starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro and Lily Gladstone – which tells the story of a dark, largely unexplored chapter of American history – is connected with theatre-goers in the French Riviera, reports Variety. Even after sitting through a movie that was longer than ‘Titanic’ the crowd was so enraptured that they sprang to their feet and applauded for nine minutes. Cannes clearly loves Leonardo and Scorsese, who returned to the festival for the first time since 1985’s ‘After Hours’.

‘I’m done,’ Arnold Schwarzenegger retires from the Terminator franchise
The Terminator star and Hollywood icon Arnold Schwarzenegger, has announced his retirement from the iconic character. Despite reprising the role multiple times since the original 1984 film directed by James Cameron, Schwarzenegger has decided to bid farewell to the character following the lukewarm response to recent Terminator movies. The first Terminator film introduced Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor, who finds herself targeted by a relentless cyborg from the future on a mission to eliminate her and prevent the birth of John Connor, the future leader of the human resistance.
