Kevin Spacey Addresses Hollywood Blacklisting at Cannes Lifetime Award
Kevin Spacey made a controversial return to the public eye at the Cannes Film Festival, where he was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Better World Fund Gala despite recent sexual misconduct allegations. Although he was acquitted in a 2023 London court and found not liable in a 2022 New York civil lawsuit, Spacey has not been invited back to major Hollywood studio productions. In his acceptance speech, he strongly criticized blacklisting and cancel culture, comparing his career struggles to those of Dalton Trumbo, a screenwriter blacklisted in the 1940s and '50s. His appearance at Cannes, supported by the producers of his new independent film "The Awakening," signals his intent to re-enter the film industry, albeit through smaller projects. Spacey expressed feeling supported by friends and colleagues but acknowledged the ongoing challenges he faces in regaining mainstream roles. The award and his speech have sparked divided reactions, highlighting the tension between his legal vindication and public controversy.
