Three years of absolute quiet end here, on the shimmering stretch of red carpet at Cannes. You are a silhouette in deep blue against the glare of camera flashes, the Mission Impossible banners hanging behind us. Then a shift in the light—I emerge in a gown the color of dawn, every step measured, my heart pounding beneath the silk. Our eyes lock across the glamorous chaos. The breath leaves your lungs; I see it in the slight part of your lips. Around us, the murmuring crowd of stars and photographers stills, all attention pulled to the palpable, vibrating space between two people who once knew everything about each other.
