A not-to-be-missed event for cinema professionals, lovers of the seventh art and those wanting to see and be seen, is underway—here is how to get the most out of Cannes.

The Cannes Film Festival is about to begin. Many stars like Scarlett Johansson will be there. The festival is known for finding films that later win Oscars. Robert De Niro will get an award. A film about Palestinian journalist Fatima Hassouna will premiere.

The event is packed with high-profile English-language movies, including the new “Mission: Impossible” and a Jennifer Lawrence-Robert Pattinson drama.
