As the credits for Stillwater rolled, Matt Damon started to tear up at the ecstatic cheers from the crowd
Damon took his time entering the theater, as he posed for seflies with fans and signed autographs. Prior to the film beginning, he lifted up his phone to record the audiences’ standing ovation as he entered the theater.
While filmmakers don’t typically give speeches following their Cannes premieres, McCarthy broke with tradition and was handed a mic after “Stillwater” ended. A mini star was born in newcomer Siauvaud, who plays a surrogate daughter to Damon in the dramatic thriller. Their on-screen chemistry played huge with the audience, only magnified when the actors embraced in theater after credits rolled.
