The Cannes Film Festival, which opens on Tuesday, is such an extravagant extravaganza that its ups and downs are notoriously difficult to predict. It is the world's best cinema exhibition. It's a stunning red carpet. It's a French Riviera hive of deal-making.

But by some metrics at least, Cannes — after a canceled 2020 festival, a reduced 2021 edition, and a triumphant 2022 return — is finally back.

"Let's just say it's become very difficult to get restaurant reservations again," says Christine Vechin, veteran producer and longtime associate of Todd Haynes.

When the 76th Cannes Film Festival opens Tuesday with the premiere of "Jean du Barry," a historical drama about Maïwenn starring Johnny Depp, the glitzy Cote d'Azur competition can feel confident that it has weathered the storms of pandemics and perceived threats.
