With ‘Evolver,’ Cate Blanchett Brings XR Passion to Cannes

In between promotional duties for “Rumours” and her Proof of Concept accelerator program, the Oscar-winning star made time to visit the “Evolver” installation at Cannes’ Cineum, where the full Immersive Competition will be available until May 25. The core of Cannes will always be pure cinema – but to include those pushing at the technical edge of this purity is, to my mind, vital for creative health of any festival.
