Chanel’s morning show can have taken place on the banks of the Seine River, but Camila Morrone was still riding the wave of the Biarritz International Film Festival. The actress sat on the jury that features young filmmakers, and said she had the time of her life on the festival, where Penélope Cruz was the guest of honor and Chanel a sponsor.

“It was essentially the most eye-opening, thrilling experience I’ve had up to now,” she said of discussing movies and seeing work from recent directors. “It’s so hard to choose a ‘best film.’ They each had beautiful elements to them. And, after all, when you understand how much work goes into making a movie, there’s no strategy to ever say that a movie will not be good. Just when you understand the labor of affection that goes into filmmaking and years of your life that it takes to lift up a story and get it off the bottom.”

She just wrapped Patricia Arquette’s directorial debut “Gonzo Girl,” costarring Arquette and Willem Dafoe. The story is loosely based on Hunter S. Thompson. Working with the Hollywood veterans was “life-changing,” she said.

The film can be making the festival rounds in the autumn. Now that she has been on the opposite side, she’s putting herself on the market. “I’m on the lookout for my next jury. Who wants me on their jury? I’m a jury girl. I would like to do like one jury a 12 months,” she joked.

Riley Keough was glammed up ‘70s disco style in a shiny jumpsuit, platform sandals and massive “No. 5” necklace.

“It wasn’t the very best alternative for the weather, but it surely was my favorite,” she said of the slinky style. The show was “cinematic and almost like a Nineteen Seventies film. They really set the scene with the Eiffel Tower and the Seine.”

Keough is gearing up for the U.S. premiere of her directorial debut, “War Pony,” on July 28. “It’s been a very long journey and it’s been trickling out slowly. So I’ve grow to be really comfortable with it,” she said of the film, which premiered in Cannes and took the Golden Camera prize for best first film.

In the mean time she is tackling acting projects, but hopes to get behind the camera again soon. “It’s just a distinct a part of your brain and it’s very fulfilling. They each have their challenges,” she said. Then it’s off to vacation for the summer to spend time together with her family.

Keough had more in common with fellow guest, Oscar-winner Sofia Coppola, then just Chanel. Coppola is ending up a movie concerning the lifetime of Keough’s grandmother Priscilla Presley, from Elvis’ young bride’s viewpoint.

Coppola keeps an apartment in Paris, though she relocated to Recent York City, and she or he’s been spending time together with her in-laws within the South of France for the summer. “They’re in Provence, so I did learn make ratatouille,” she said.

Coppola famously interned at Chanel in her teens, and said the show was like a family reunion. She’s known creative director Virginie Viard eternally, and model Carole Bouquet is “like an aunt” to her.

“It was really fun to work with someone recent and see what they’re able to. She really anchors it,” Coppola said of Cailee Spaeny, who plays Priscilla within the film. Jacob Elordi is Elvis.

“It was really daunting. The concept of Elvis especially,” she said of the casting process. “Jacob just transformed. And Cailee needed to play [Priscilla] from 15 to twenty-eight so she has to play a complete life. But I met them and just felt like they may do it. You never know until you might be on [set], but it surely’s like you may have to go along with it until you do.”

Chanel did a special search for the film, which can be premiering in October.

For Lupita Nyong’o, it’s been an extended relationship with the home, which has dressed her for several red carpets.

“It’s a brand that basically knows its identity, with I assume you could possibly call it exploration and playfulness, while just following who they’re. I really like that it’s consistent.” While her personal style has shifted since 2020, she continues to be on the lookout for “easy put-together-ness.”

“I would like to look good, but I don’t wish to be in pain doing it,” she joked. She had on a summery shorts outfit in purple, with a coordinating manicure.

She just wrapped “A Quiet Place: Day One,” costarring Joseph Quinn and Djimon Hounsou.

“It was one of the crucial rewarding experiences of my profession. It was just incredibly the proper amount of challenge and collaboration,” she said of the psychological horror film. “It was an environment that basically means that you can go to scary places. That’s the way you grow. I learned to give up rather a lot on this project, and as an artist I actually needed to give up my ego with the intention to do the work. It was a really bare experience.”

Jenna Coleman, who played Queen Victoria for several seasons within the period drama “Victoria,” and starred within the gothic drama “The Sandman” last 12 months, said she is changing up her style. The peony pink ensemble of the day was sartorial evidence.

Costumes with corsets really change your mood, she added. “It affects the best way an individual can display emotion and what’s held in — Victoria was literally bursting on the seams,” she said. Working on a personality, she starts from the shoes up, she added.

Next up is the series “Wilderness,” which was an intense 4 month shoot within the Grand Canyon. Climbing boots helped her get into character. “I really like the outside, but I really like the town and the outside. I would like to have one and the opposite as an antidote for a little bit of each.

“I had never seen a dog on a runway before. There ought to be more,” she joked of the show. “Let’s carry wicker baskets and walk across the river — they really created a scene.”

French actress Clémence Poésy was expertly navigating the cobblestones with grace, despite a preference for studios while walking in Paris. “I never wear this high of shoes, ever,” she said, as she reveled within the show’s setting.  

Poésy grew up within the suburbs of the capital. “As a young person, all I desired to do was are available in and walk along the Seine and shop on the bouquinistes on the weekend. This felt deeply Parisian and a bit like a setting in ‘60s French cinema.”

She’s just wrapped the second season of “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon,” which takes the title character from the Southern U.S. to France.

“To hastily dive into that genre was a really interesting experience. We touch on lots of things I’ve never done before,” said the “Tenet” actress, noting that she has to maintain mum on the show for fear of unveiling spoilers. “I’ll say that there are lots of surprises.”

“Vikings: Valhalla” star Frida Gustavsson has walked in several Chanel shows in her former modeling days, but it surely was her first time on the side of the seats. She declared it “wonderful,” and said that acting had at all times been her goal.

“Modeling form of fell into my lap and I assumed I should make essentially the most out of it. The years form of rolled by and I used to be doing quite well, then I made a decision I needed to jump off the train.”

She jumped into the Netflix series, where she spends her time sword-fighting and doing stunts.

“There may be fighting galore. It gets greater,” she said of the upcoming season, which has wrapped but will premiere in January. She trains six days per week and keeps a really strict regimen. “I’ve form of got the hang of it, but after all desired to push myself and make it more intense, so there’s a fight scene in season three that I believe I’m essentially the most happy with.

“It expands into recent continents and recent cultures, and there are some characters that the audience really longed to fulfill, and so they’re gonna be on this,” she revealed.

As for comparing the 2 careers, “If you’re a model you don’t should risk your life,” she joked concerning the death-defying stunts she does on the show. “But I had lots of respect for the women walking today.”
