Drama with the fest's online ticketing portal has been the No. 1 offender on the nuisance list: 'I hope they find a way to make the system work as well as it always has.'

Fest officials put out a statement, linking technical difficulties to bots and blaming “acts aimed at saturating the site with ticket requests, thus preventing festival-goers from accessing it.” Officials worked to remedy the problem, eventually issuing a new link for press. On Wednesday, however, more than a hundred fest goers were spotted queuing up in a Palais hallway attempting to gain access to festival computers which, at the time, was the only way to secure tickets.

Tickets haven’t been Berney’s only concern this week. “It was our first dinner in Cannes, and we were seated outside on the sidewalk. I put my bag on the back of my chair, and when we left, [my phone] was gone,” she revealed of the theft, something she’s never experienced in attending the festival. “I tracked it, and it was somewhere on the highway outside of town. I should’ve been more careful.”
