The Cannes world premiere of Christophe Honoré's Marcello Mio, starring Chiara Mastroianni, was warmly received with over eight minutes of applause

(Photo by Neilson Barnard/Getty Images)Getty Now a Cannes veteran, French filmmaker Christophe Honoré has returned to the Competition with the world premiere of Marcello Mio, his French-Italian comedy that stars longtime collaborator Chiara Mastroianni — who, in the film, adopts the persona and appearance of her late father, Marcello Mastroianni. In a fantasy scenario, Chiara hits a crisis point and begins to dress, speak and breathe like her late father, the legendary star of such films as La Dolce Vita, 81/2 and Marriage Italian Style. The journey takes Chiara to her father’s home city of Rome, where she revisits old haunts and key backdrops of his filmography even jumping in the Trevi Fountain for her own La Dolce Vita moment.
