As a prestigious and time-honored event, the famed Cannes Film Festival has a long history of overzealous applause. The celebrated actors and directors stand awkwardly for the entire duration, unsure of what to do with their hands, and it's weird but sweet.
Of course, a standing ovation always trumps being booed, for which the festival is also notorious, despite its elite crowds. Surprising films like 'Taxi Driver' (1976), 'L'Avventura' (1960), and Sofia Coppola's 'Marie Antoinette' (2006) were all booed by men and women in tuxedos and gowns.
Many surprising films have earned the longest standing ovations in Cannes history, with the longest recorded reaching an astounding 22 minutes! Click through to find out the films with the most physically demanding fanfare.
