Last evening in France, Kanye West debuted his short film “Cruel Summer” at the Cannes Film Festival. His girlfriend Kim Kardashian and friend/collaborator Jay-Z were there to support, as well as his GOOD Music family including Kid Cudi who’s in the film, comedian Aziz Ansari who’s in the film as well and more. Critics have responded postiively so far and based on the review of the film, it sounds like it’s going to be pretty good! It will play in the states for only a few days, though I’m not too sure on when. I assume it will coincide with the GOOD Music compilation album release, which shares the name of the film. Read a detailed review of the movie below, courtesy of Hollywood Reporter.
(HP) – The premiere was staged at a pop-up pyramid in a parking lot by the water. Viewers were surrounded by the screens, on which the story of a thief (Cudi) who falls in love with a blind Arab woman (Jammal) unfolded. The woman’s father says that Cudi’s character can only marry her if she cures her blindness. (Tall orders!) The film featured all new music, as GQ’s Logan Hill confirmed.
