ABOUT TOWN RAMBLING REPORTER INSIDE TWC’S LAWLESS AFTERPARTY As one of the most anticipated films of the festival, TWC and FilmNation’s premiere of John Hillcoat’s Lawless did not disappoint — and neither did the film’s exclusive after-party at Baoli beach on May 19. After receiving a nearly 10-minute-standing-ovation in the Palais theatre (and as any veteran fest-goer can attest, that’s a long one), the cast and production team were on cloud nine. In fact, the audience didn’t even wait until the end. During three of the film’s final key turns, the crowd erupted into three separate rounds of applause. The warm reception actually moved star Shia LaBeouf’s date to tears — his mother, Shayna. “It was like a big cast reunion,” said one insider, who says the film was made so long ago on such a slim budget that the cast was very close while living in condos in Georgia. Once LaBeouf arrived at the party, he grabbed a cigarette and immediately made his way to a nearby pier to take in the view and seemingly take a moment alone to digest the evening’s events. Jessica Chastain also arrived early to the party and snacked on the light passed appetizers being served and danced with friends to the music from a local French DJ. Producer Harvey Weinstein didn’t make his appearance at the soiree until much later, having to stay on at the Palais for the premiere of his recently acquired Wayne Blair’s Lawless stars Jason Clarke and Shia LaBeouf attend the after party at Baoli Beach. film The Sapphires (starring Chris Dowd, who also popped by the Lawless after-party). The elusive Tom Hardy (who had to be coaxed into removing his Oakley sunglasses for the red carpet) even made a cameo at the party with his date to celebrate the film’s reception — the star jetted out the following day to begin work on his next project. Guy Pearce and newcomer Jason Clarke (who is expected to explode this year between Lawless and Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby) holed up in a corner, next to the soft-spoken Mia Wasikowska, who was chatting closely to co-star Dane DeHaan. When photographers invaded the corner, LaBeouf put his hand over his face — clearly indicating he was done with picture taking for the night. The star’s weight was also a Redfoo of LMFAO performs on the TV show Le Grand Journal on the set of French TV’s Canal +. 14 hot topic of conversation, with one partygoer commenting to LaBeouf, “You’re back down to your fighting weight.” To which he responded, “I know, right?” Also on hand we’re the film’s producers Doug Wick and Lucy Fisher. Despite being a veteran production team (the pair produced such films as Gladiator, Girl, Interrupted and Memoirs of a Geisha), this is the couple’s first trip to Cannes. Wick largely credits FilmNation CEO Glen Basner for really rallying behind the film (Basner screened the film at Cannes last year under the title The Wettest County). “Glen did such great things with this movie,” Wick told THR. UNDER THE WEATHER It’s not just small talk. The weather has become one of the hottest topics of the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. “It really messes me up,” said Sony Pictures Classics co-president Tom Bernard, who famously stays at the Carlton and rides his bike around town. The rainy conditions, combined with cooler-than-normal temps, have created disruptions. “It keeps people off the street.” On On the the few few days were the the sun has managed to ap pear, the the gusty winds have become a head ache for fest-goers. Focus Features was Bernard forced to move its Moonrise Kingdom after-party due to the gusts, and people at the Carlton hotel are fighting for tables at the restaurant — because no one is sitting on the terrace or eating at the beach club. With rainy conditions expected to persist through most of the week, it might be time to put your bathing suit away and invest in an umbrella. TROUBLE IN PARADISE? With rumors circulating that the hyper-popular duo LMFAO are embroiled in financial disputes and the future of the group in question, Redfoo (real name: Stefan Gordy) was seen making the rounds at the festival sans his performance partner. The wild-haired singer was seen having dinner at Nikki Beach La Terrasse on the Rooftop of the JW Marriott on May 17 with a group of friends, before heading over the VIP Room nightclub. It wasn’t long before Redfoo decided to grab the mic for an impromptu concert, performing a handful of the duo’s most popular songs — by himself. THR Yoga — Baldwin Style By Rebecca Le�er AS THE CANNES FILM Festival heads into its second week, it’s about time for a detox. Yoga instructor Hilaria Thomas, in town with husband-to-be Alec Baldwin — who is �lming James Toback’s Seduced and Abandoned — shared her insider tips for surviving festival madness. Thomas, who runs Yoga Vida studio in NYC, gave THR her survival strategy over a vegan detox menu at the Carlton. Watch Baldwin and Thomas discuss their yoga regimen at THR.com. 1. Do everything in moderation. “Think before you drink,” says Thomas. France is a great place to keep those calories in check. “The portion sizes are great here,” she says. 2. Stay active. Between screenings, parties, meetings and more parties, �nding the time to exercise during Cannes is a challenge. Thomas has a simple rule: “Make time.” 3. Sleep. Slumber may be a luxury during the festival, but when you get to into bed, Thomas says “make your sleep hours count.” And don’t be afraid to �t in a little nap. “The siesta can be even more relaxing than sleeping at night.” 4. Combat stress. “When you come to events like this, it’s all about participating without hurting yourselves so you don’t need to detox. Just live moderately and don’t forget to enjoy.” THR day6_rambling.indd 1 5/20/12 5:46 PM DAVE M. BENETT/GETTY IMAGES
