The winners of the 64th Festival de Cannes have been announced and despite all the grousing over The Tree of Life being a heavily divisive film, it still managed to pick up the top prize. After Lars von Trier’s outburst about Hitler sympathies (for which he later apologized), the perception was that his film Melancholia would be ignored. However, it seems that the festival decided not to punish the film’s star Kirsten Dunst who picked up the Best Actress prize. Here are the rest of the winners.
