Canada

When the Coppola film initially got boos at the end, then a long standing ovation when the “in memoriam” card came up.

Literally they are all around 6 minutes as well. This leads me to believe it is the standard expected behaviour at Cannes and not done kind of mark of quality. Like saying your Uber driver has 4.9 stars. That just means he doesn't murder people.

Reminds me of the phenomenon described here where something that is meant to be a subjective measure of quality begins getting monitored and treated as an objective measure, so people stop being honest in their subjective assessment and start thinking about what the thing "deserves"

I stood up in my living room and gave you a six minute standing ovation.*

Can't wait for the lemmy post.

• I actually sat on the shitter and tugged one out instead.
