вЂњYou keep saying something and people start thinking there must be something to it, when itвЂ™s complete bullshit.вЂќ There is something that has profoundly bothered me in ViggoвЂ™s recent remarks. In my career as a writer and director, IвЂ™ve had more awards than I could ever dream of.

The French press in particular portrays me as someone whose only desire is to win the Palme dвЂ™Or they donвЂ™t know how wrong they are. Those rumors Viggo mentions have been fueled by the press over the years.

I agree with the fact that the presidentвЂ™s vote doesnвЂ™t count more than those of his or her fellow jury members. I was a member of the jury in 1992 and I presided over it in 2017. I know the rules of this festivalвЂ™s game. Soon after, this was a hot topic for the press, as were the lack of awards for David LynchвЂ™s вЂњThe Straight Story.вЂќ I never said a word, mainly because I hadnвЂ™t seen the other films, and it would still take me some years to see them all because auteur films are not automatically released. I was very happy, I had just received my best director award, and there was nothing to complain about. I listened to them, unable to reply, because I couldnвЂ™t understand what they were talking about. But, with time, I started feeling upset with this whole business because several members of the jury came to me in the party after the ceremony to express what felt like their condolences as they apologized to me for not having received the Palme. I have never criticized the list of winners. I knew by then that the Palme was for another film, the festival had warned me, but I was radiant with the award I was about to receive and I felt like I was in a dream. As a matter of fact, when I got back to Cannes that Sunday for the closing ceremony, the front page of French newspaper Nice Matin announced me as the winner, with a smaller headline explaining that was the forecast considering the critical and audience response. It is true that some days ago, I wrote for the Spanish newspaper El PaГs that I was the closest to win the damned Palme with вЂњAll About My Mother.вЂќ I was referring to the enthusiastic reaction from the critics and the audience. You just have to go back to the press archives to find out for yourself. I cannot accept to be portrayed as embittered for not receiving the Palme dвЂ™Or. No one will be able to find a trace of disappointment in my face in all the photos or in my answers during the press conference, only happiness and euphoria.

How odd stories remain and get distorted with time.
