We were accompanied by Vietnamese American filmmaker Nguyen, whose film How to Ride a Bike follows a Vietnamese dad who never learned to ride a bike but, after a failed attempt to teach his son to do so, begins learning in secret, and Amer, the Palestinian American comedian, writer, and director behind on Netflix, whose new project Return to Sender follows a Palestinian stand-up and refugee who experiences progressively senseless immigration restrictions while on a global tour.

Perhaps Bette Davis and Joan Crawford's mutual loathing comes to mind? Or Marlon Brando's 40-year-old beef with Burt Reynolds? Maybe the more recent tensions between Olivia Wilde and Florence Pugh?

Truly, this is one of the greatest celebrity animosities of this century.

Cate Blanchett, the 56-year-old Australian actress, known for her Oscar-winning performances in The Aviator and Blue Jasmine, has actively advocated for climate action and humanitarian issues.
