20 Spots Vying for the Film Grand Prix: Which Is Your Favorite?

The Film Grand Prix at Cannes perhaps isn't quite as glamorous as it used to be—following the addition of Titanium some years ago. But it's still a hugely coveted prize, pitting the world's best TV commercials and online films against one another.

Ahead of next week's festival, the Gunn Report has combed through the year's spots and selected 20 that may have the best chance of winning Lions this year. Check them out below—they're presented in alphabetical order by client name.

The Gunn Report is also holding an online vote to select the spot that most deserves the Grand Prix. At this point, you have to think that Chipotle's "Back to the Start" is the front-runner. But of course, anything can happen.
