Justine Triet’s “Anatomy of a Fall” won the Palme d’Or at the 76th Cannes Film Festival in a ceremony Saturday that handed the festival’s prestigious top prize to a twisty French Alps courtroom drama. “Anatomy of a Fall" is only the third film directed by a woman to win the Palme d’Or. It stars Sandra Hüller as a writer trying to prove her innocence in her husband’s death. Cannes’ Grand Prix, its second prize, went to Jonathan Glazer’s “The Zone of Interest,” a chilling Martin Amis adaptation about a German family living next door to Auschwitz.

Adam Kealoha Causey was just 10 years old the first time he truly heard Tina Turner's voice. As The Associated Press writer notes in an essay, the moment was transforming.

And he would also come to deeply appreciate the Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's lasting endurance not only as an artist but as a brave and outspoken survivor of domestic violence. When he heard of Turner's death at 83, Causey decided it was time to repay the gift she had given him with some appreciative words of his own.
