'Wildlife' Starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Carey Mulligan to Headline Cannes Critics' Week

According to Variety, The Cannes Film Festival Critics' Week will open with "Wildlife," starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Carey Mulligan.

"'Wildlife' has a TIMELESS dimension, as well as a social bent because it deals with the struggles of the white working class while also exploring the characters' emotions with great sensibility," said Charles Tesson, the artistic director of the week.

"Wildlife" is the only American film to be showcased at this year's Critics' Week.
