British actor Colin Firth, who was attending the same dinner, rushed to Fanning’s aid until the Beguiled star was taken away for medical assistance, Variety said. Fanning is one of nine film industry luminaries judging this year’s selection at the world’s top film festival.

They will announce who has won the coveted Palme d’Or for best film on Saturday, choosing one of 21 contenders including Quentin Tarantino’s latest, Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, which premiered on Tuesday.
