"My fascination with the Cannes Film Festival
began in September 1946, when I was 15. I remember
Gérard Philippe extending his hand towards me
without so much as a glance my way, and watching a
film that would become one of my favourites, La
Symphonie Pastorale starring the ravishing Michèle
Morgan.(...)"
FOR 12 DAYS EVERY YEAR IN MAY, THE CITY OF CANNES TRANSFORMS INTO A VIBRANT HUB, AS COUNTLESS PEOPLE FLOCK TO ONE OF THE WORLD’S GREATEST FILM FESTIVALS. COLUMNIST AND FILM BUFF MINOU PETROWSKI HAS FOLLOWED THE FESTIVAL FOR 22 YEARS.
