The 64th
Cannes Film Festival is well underway in France and
La Croisette is buzzing with excitement! Jury President Robert De Niro opened the ceremony with an honorary
Palme d’Or for Producer-Director Bernardo Bertolucci, and Tuesday, 78-year-old Jean-Paul Belmondo, one of France’s cherished actors of the French New Wave, received a
Palme d’Or in honor of his 50 year career.

We’ve been following the excitement on
Le Grand Journal, our favorite source for French news, which airs the show live, right outside the
Palais des Festivals every year especially for the event.
