It’s the very final day of Cannes 2021, when Tilda Swinton swings by a suite in the Majestic hotel wearing a bright multi-coloured jumpsuit. Her hair a shock of blonde, she looks bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. “I actually did sleep well last night,” she reveals, which is surprising given she attended the midnight premiere of Gaspar Noé’s latest movie Vortex. “It’s always nice to see the very last film,” adds the actor, who arrived at this year’s festival with three new movies and a trunk full of statement outfits by Chanel.
Needless to say, the style press swiftly dubbed the Scottish siren ‘the Queen of Cannes’ for her quirky red-carpet chic. But fashion and frivolity has always been a sidebar for Swinton, who is a cineaste first and foremost, right back to her early days when she was the late Derek Jarman’s muse. While she won an Oscar for her conflicted lawyer in Michael Clayton and even popped up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the mystic Ancient One in Doctor Strange, she’s primarily a flag-waver for arthouse auteurs, whether she’s worked with them or not.
