In February you have the Oscars, then the Met Gala, and this week it is the Cannes Film Festival. I will never be invited to the film festival, but The South of France is definitely on my bucket list.

The most prestigious award given is Palme d Or (Golden Palm) for best film. Seven other awards are given including Best Actor, Best Actress, and Grand Prize of the Festival.
A look back into the Archives of The Cannes Film Festival:
Sophia Loren, 1958 |
Jayne Mansfield, 1958 |
Before she was Princes of Monaco, Grace Kelly had a brief fling with French actor Jean- Pierre Armont.
