Rami Malek shed a tear as he soaked up the love in the Palais for his deeply emotional turn in Ira Sachs’ “The Man I Love,” which earned an eight-minute standing ovation Wednesday in Cannes. The film is notably one of only two American features competing for the Palme d’Or at this year’s festival (the other being James Gray’s “Paper Tiger,” starring Adam Driver, Miles Teller and Scarlett Johansson).

“This is a film about what we can bring to each other through art, through love, through pain, through memory,” said Sachs after the screening. “And I hope there are some memories we share from this evening for the festival and our love of cinema”
