Vin Diesel pays emotional tribute to late 'Fast and Furious' co-star at Cannes


It’s a simple action movie that grew into a billion-dollar global franchise. “The Fast and the Furious” marked its 25th anniversary with a midnight showing at the Cannes Film Festival. Lead actor Vin Diesel was joined on the red carpet by the daughter of his late co-star Paul Walker, to whom he paid an emotional tribute. FRANCE 24’s Culture Editor Eve Jackson also tells us about the other films that have festival-goers revved up, from an “unhinged” slasher flick with Gillian Anderson and Hannah Einbinder, to a film starring Barry Keoghan as the charismatic leader of a Circassian immigrant family.
