It’s good that he doesn’t need more attention!
Kevin Spacey, who lamented their career fight last week While accepting an honor at Cannes, elicited a classic Johnny line from “Airplane” on Saturday, which to suggest it was he who caused Wide power outage It disturbed large parts of southeastern France and threatened the closing ceremony.
Spacey – with what seems to be AI – published a picture on x By himself like Johnny, the evil and irreverted air traffic manager from the comedy classic from 1980 who briefly disconnects from the track lamps when the poor name flight is about to land before he disconnects it and delivers one of his many feeds: “Just jokes!”
French The authorities suspect murder Was behind a real power outage Saturday morning that threatened to disturb the festival’s closing celebration, including Palme d’Or presentatin. However, the power was restored around 15 local time, long before the big fête, and was cheering from the crowd when music began to blast from the beach speakers again.
And no, Spacey was not among the usual suspects.
But he joked he was, in a clear reference to the scene from “Airplane!” (which is not surprisingly not premiered at Cannes when it came out 45 years ago).
Spacey’s resemblance to Johnny (played by Stephen Stucker) goes beyond only their similar appearance, as the actor spent the months and the years after the charges of sexual abuse flew around him and published eccentric videos in his own defense that seemed to dismiss the seriousness he faced. Spacey was facing a civil case in New York and a criminal case in London, but was cleared in both cases.
Spacey compared his own career collapse with victims of the Hollywood black list in the mid-1900s on Tuesday when he accepted an award in Cannes, where Better World Fund Gala (not related to the festival itself) honored it twice the Oscar winner Award for Excellence in movie and television.
“I would like to congratulate (Better World Fund founder Manuel Collas de la Roche) for the decision to invite me here tonight to accept this award,” Spacey said when accepting the glory. “Who would have ever thought to honor someone who has been liberated in every court he has ever entered would be considered a brave idea. But here we are.”
And Leon gets Laaaaarger.
