Starlet with photographers - Cannes Film Festival

The Cannes Film Festival is the world's most prestigious film festival, held in the resort town of Cannes, France, since 1946. The top award given out at Cannes is the Palme d'Or (Golden Palm) for the best film.

The festival isn't open to the public, but attracts massive media exposure for the many movie stars, directors and producers who attend to promote their new films. Starlets posing for photographers are a part of Cannes folklore.
