“Blue Is The Warmest Color” wins France’s Prix Louis Delluc

PanARMENIAN.Net - France’s prestigious Prix Louis Delluc has gone to Blue Is The Warmest Color, Deadline said.

The Cannes Palme d’Or winner directed by Abdellatif Kechiche is famously not France’s Oscar entry this year due to the timing of its release, but just nabbed a Golden Globe nomination and has an Indie Spirit nom as well as a handful of critics’ prizes.

Cannes President Gilles Jacob oversees the jury for the Delluc award, which was established in 1937. Last year’s winner was Benoit Jacquot’s Farewell, My Queen. The best first film Delluc went this year to Vandal by Hélier Cisterne.
