I could be wrong but I think only the best film wins the Palm D'or, which went to the White Ribbon this year.... Charlotte Gainsbourg just took home the best actress prize.
Score = 1
Following some google research, looks like I was way off. I'll just shut my big yapper now.
Score = 1
No, you were right the first time. The Palm d'Or is the name of the award specifically given out to the best film. You made me second guess myself, but I checked Varietyadn the official Cannes website.
