Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is back at the Cannes Film Festival with his film 'Kennedy' and has once again registered a resounding response like all his earlier films such as 'Raman Raghav 2.0', 'Ugly', 'Bombay Talkies' and the two-part gangster drama 'Gangs of Wasseypur' that made it to the festival.

'Kennedy', which is a police noir film, received a 7-minute standing ovation at The Grand Lumiere Theatre where it was screened under the midnight screening section at 12:15 a.m. on Thursday (France local time).
