Cannes Film Festival. The actor, 26, slicked back his hair and donned a dapper suit for the event held at Place de la Castre. Paul looked full of confidence as he posed in his sharp suit and statement bow tie at the ceremony which aims to shine a light on women’s contribution to cinema, both in front of and behind the camera.

With his classic 1990s heartthrob looks, it was only a matter of time before Paul Mescal found his way into a film set in that era. Like “Normal People,” the series that catapulted the young Irish actor to fame, Charlotte Wells’ “Aftersun” has him wearing shorts, but this time with a belt and the polo shirt tucked in — a detail like many others in the film that should send a wave of recognition through audience members who grew up then.

Scottish writer-director Charlotte Wells lights up Cannes Critics’ Week with Aftersun, the absorbing story of an 11-year-old going on holiday with her father. Paul Mescal (Normal People, The Lost Daughter) stars alongside Francesca Corio in a terrific two-hander with engaging supporting performances. Shot on location in Turkey, the film is partly a comedy-drama about a package holiday, but also a meditation on memories of a father with mental health problems.

Early in Saela Davis and Anna Rose Holmer’s dark and stately God’s Creatures, screening in Directors’ Fortnight here at Cannes, one of the younger women at a wake in an old Irish fishing village declares that her new baby will definitely be learning to swim. The dead man drowned, a professional risk on the surging waters of the west of Ireland. Even now that the fishing industry has given way to oyster beds suspended in chest-deep water, the farmers wear heavy waders and the worst can happen. The other women are startled. Swimming lessons? That’s not how things are done around here.

Guy Lodge Film CriticIt’s not that we haven’t seen Emily Watson on screen recently — it just feels a long time since any film really made us look at her. Somehow knowing and guileless and haunted at once, her piercing, pale-eyed gaze made an immediate mark in film history with her debut in “Breaking the Waves” a quarter-century ago, but it’s been an underused natural resource of late: TV has been more generous, but the movies have confined her to stock mom-and-wife supporting roles for years.

CANNES – Despite the passage of time, very little has changed over the decades in the small Irish fishing village depicted in “God’s Creatures.” There is work. There is family.

Paul Mescal, 26, and girlfriend Phoebe Bridgers looked utterly loved-up as they were spotted sharing a sweet moment on the streets of Los Angeles earlier this week. The couple, who were reported to have gotten engaged in secret a while ago, couldn't stop smiling and giggling as they emerged from a yoga class in the city. Carrying yoga mats and dressed in casual long-sleeved tops and sports shorts, the couple wrapped their arms around each other for an impromptu kiss and a cuddle.
