Cannes First Look (https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/story/history-of-sound-paul-mescal-josh-oconnor-first-look-awards-insider?srsltid=AfmBOopYaAzKOX9OdkQoRY9qpdi4i1vNMPiX7YofR03_6z_7-Her8Hfl)
The History of Sound is an upcoming historical romantic drama film directed by Oliver Hermanus. Based on the short story of the same name by Ben Shattuck, it is about the relationship between two men (Josh O'Connor and Paul Mescal) who meet in 1916 and then travel together in the summer of 1919 to record the folk songs of their countrymen in rural New England.
The film will have its world premiere at the main competition of the 2025 Cannes Film Festival on May 21, where it will compete for the Palme d'Or.
Worked on this last spring in New Jersey! The thought of having been on a potential Palme d'Or winner is an exciting one. Can't wait to see it :)
