"120 Beats Per Minute"

“120 Beats Per Minute,” “Visages, Villages” and the poodle from “The Meyerowitz Stories” are among the winners in various Cannes Film Festival Awards, which are handed out in the run-up to the big prizes that will be bestowed on Sunday at the conclusion of the festival.

FIPRESCI prizes, which are given out by the International Federation of Film Critics, go to the films deemed best in Cannes main competition, in the Un Certain Regard section and in the Directors’ Fortnight or International Critics’ Week sidebars.

Robin Campillo’s “120 Beats Per Minute” won the FIPRESCI award for the main competition, while Kantemir Balagov’s “Closeness” (“Tesnota”) was the choice in the Un Certain Regard competition and Pedro Pinho’s “The Nothing Factory” (“A Fabrica de Nada”) won the award for Directors’ Fortnight or Critic’ Week.

Jurors were Alissa Simon, Thomas Adian, Rodrigo Fonseca, Barbara Lorey de Lacharriere, Vidyashankar Jois, Pierre Pageau, Eva Peydro, Silvana Silvestri and Mode Steinkjer.

“Visages, Villages,” a collaboration between legendary French director Agnes Varda and JR, took the Golden Eye Documentary Prize, which was open to nonfiction films from all sections of the festival. The jury, which considered more than 20 docs, consisted of actress Sandrine Bonnaire, documentary filmmakers Lucy Walker and Dror Moreh, festival programmer Thom Powers and critic Lorenzo Codelli.

This is the third year in which a documentary award has been given out at Cannes, which is stepping up the once-scant attention it paid to nonfiction filmmaking.

An honorable mention went to Emmanuel Gras’ “Makala.”

The Ecumenical Jury, a faith-based panel that gives its award to a film that reveals “the mysterious depths of human beings,” gave its top award to Naomi Kawase for “Radiance.”

In the Palme Dog, a partly tongue-in-cheek competition to recognize the best canine performance at the festival, the winner was Bruno, the poodle from Noah Baumbach’s “The Meyerowitz Stories.” The Jury Prize went to a dog from the Critics’ Week entry “Eva,” with a special mention to Cannes’ own bomb-sniffing dogs, part of the festival’s biggest-ever security force.

TheWrap previously covered the awards in the Un Certain Regard section, which was topped by Mohammed Rasoulof’s “Lerd”; Directors’ Fortnight, which awarded “The Rider”; and Critics’ Week, which gave its top prize to “Makala.”

The Palme d’Or, the Camera d’Or and other main-competition awards will be handed out on Sunday evening.

The 13 Tackiest Cannes PR Stunts, From Blake Lively's Sharks to Sacha Baron Cohen's Mankini (Photos)

From a faux terrorist attack to sharks in the French Riviera, promoters often miss the mark with their gaudy Cannes PR stunts.
Faux “Terror Raid” to Promote Oraxy
Guests at Hotel du Cap Eden-Roc got a surprise visit by men outfitted in militia-themed gear last year, who approached the hotel by boat. It was a publicity stunt for the Paris-based Oraxy, which describes itself as “the world’s first private global marketplace reserved exclusively for UHNWI,” or Ultra High Net Worth Individuals.
Sacha Baron Cohen Wears Green Mankini
In 2006, Sacha Baron Cohen sported a bright green male thong known as the “mankini” to promote “Borat! Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.”

Sacha Baron Cohen Brings a Camel
In 2012, “The Dictator” actor turned up with two model bodyguards and a camel. He even managed to fall off the camel, which bore a license plate with “Wadiya 1” on it – a reference to the fictional North African Republic of Wadiya, where “The Dictator” was set.

Faux Snow for "A Christmas Carol"
Disney tapped Jim Carrey for a new version of “A Christmas Carol” in 2009 — and decided to bring the holiday spirit to Cannes by covering the Croisette with snow. Not the best example of reading the room or, in this case, the luxurious French beach town in the middle of May. Shout out to Robin Wright and Colin Firth in the background for looking horrified at the faux snowball fight.

Jerry Seinfeld Flies In to Promote "Bee Movie"
In 2007, Jerry Seinfeld took Cannes by air to promote his big animated push for Disney, for which he served as writer and star and recruited pals like Chris Rock. His giant bee costume might have been worse than his notorious “Seinfeld” puffy shirt.

"Trolls" Wigs

Gaspar Noe’s Graphic Makeout Posters to Promote “Love”
Gaspar Noe at first shocked -- and then satisfied -- critics with his depiction of sex on film. He was praised for depicting the joyous and fervent act and staying mostly out of the realm of straight-up pornography. Promoting the film, however, was a different story. Producers wallpapered Cannes in posters of a saliva-covered triple kiss and an NSFW image of a penis and a woman's breast after climax.
Dolph Lundgren, Jean-Claude Van Damme Hold Impromptu Stage Fight
Both "Universal Soldier" actors held a stage fight on the steps of a famed staircase in 1992. Many believed it was real, but Lundgren told The Hollywood Reporter that it was planned.

Dead pigeons for "24 Hour Party People"

Naked Bike Rides
Felix van Groeningen, the filmmaker behind “The Misfortunates,” decided to recreate a scene from his film where a dysfunctional family rides bikes in the nude. Just hours before a press conference, the director and his team disrobed and flew down the Croisette in the buff. A staffer on a motorcycle followed with their underwear, in case French police got a gander at them.
