Titane, directed by Julia Ducournau and winner of the 2021 Palme d'Or at Cannes, is my most anticipated film of 2021. Though it was released in October, I have yet to see it due to zero opportunity. I'm hoping for a local theater screening in the upcoming months (Violet Crown, please), but have yet to see notice of one. I do not think it is yet streaming, but if it is, I'm pretty certain that I will hold out for the big screen. I may have to travel a bit, Richmond/DC style. For those of my friends and colleagues in major markets and larger cities that have had the chance to see Titane, well, keep it quiet - you already know I'm jealous.

Director Julie Ducournau is only the second woman to receive the Palme d'Or and the first female to win it alone.'
