Spit, vomit and a banned baby: Cannes controversies – ranked!

For every standing ovation there’s a riotous backlash – the film festival’s history is littered with boos, protests, furious rows and career-defining disasters

Part of the appeal of Cannes is its sense of old-school glamour. It is, however, a shame that the glamour often comes at the expense of logic and practicality. In 2015, a group of women were barred from the gala screening of Todd Haynes’ historical lesbian romance Carol for not adhering to the rule that women must wear high heels. The same happened to producer Valeria Richter, even though part of her left foot had been amputated. A year later, Julia Roberts made her displeasure about this known by walking the red carpet barefoot.

Under the knowledgeable guidance of Babett Peter, the Frauen-Bundesliga club have their country’s big two, and the Champions League, in their sights

Frankfurt remains one of the most prominent and historic names in women’s football in Germany. The old 1. FFC Frankfurt ruled the nation for almost a decade, winning the Frauen-Bundesliga seven times between 1999 and 2008, including five in six seasons, and secured four European titles between 2002 and 2015.

The best of Germany, and sometimes beyond, represented Frankfurt before clubs such as Wolfsburg, and subsequently Bayern Munich, took charge, but now the city’s name is back challenging at the business end of the table.
