“Cinema is magic.”

So said veteran filmmaker Richard Linklater when the lights came up inside the Grand Lumiére Theatre and he was handed a microphone following an electric 10-minute standing ovation for his Nouvelle Vague, Linklater’s love letter to French moviemaking. But the phrase works when applied to the events of the 78th Cannes Film Festival, which once again displayed the big-screen’s spellbinding charms.

While this year may have delivered the most politically charged festival in recent memory, the glamour glittered just the same. To capture the stars off the red carpet, The Hollywood Reporter once again partnered with award-winning visual storyteller Julian Ungano for an exclusive festival portfolio. The veteran lensman worked up his own special blend of magic thanks to intimate portraits of Scarlett Johansson and her Eleanor the Great team of June Squibb and Erin Kellyman, Linklater’s French-speaking star Zoey Deutch, Harris Dickinson and his Urchin collaborator Frank Dillane, another French-speaking star in Oscar winner Jodie Foster of the festival selection A Private Life, and Die, My Love star LaKeith Stanfield.

See below for all of the action as well as images of more stars like Alana Haim, Luke Grimes, Adria Arjona, Vicky Krieps, Tahar Rahim, Naomie Harris, Jai Courtney, Josh Heuston, Hadley Robinson, Natasha Poly, Piper Perabo, Sope Dirisu, Vasili Schneider and Ishaan Khatter.
