Adam Sandler received a four-minute standing ovation (yes, you read that correctly a 4 minute standing ovation) at the Cannes Film Festival on the French Riviera.
“Perhaps the [biggest surprise is] a sentence I thought I might never write: Is Adam Sandler a contender for Best Actor in Cannes?”
Sandler has come a long way since nudie magazine day and this is actually his second time gaining praise at Cannes.
The movie was recently acquired by Netflix and stars Sandler alongside Ben Stiller, Emma Thompson, and Dustin Hoffman as a dysfunctional family in New York.
