Cannes Film Festival

  This year I had the pleasure to attend the 64th annual Cannes Film Festival which is properly named Festival De Cannes. Held between May 11th-22nd in this impossibly glamorous town in the
heart of the South-of-France, Festival de Cannes is lauded by the international film industry as the 'most prestigious film festival in the world' and its definitely not hard to see why as you casually stroll along the famous Croisette.
  Everything goes down on the Croisette which is where the best hotels, restaurants, and designer shops are located. What makes it even more spectacular is the backdrop of the French Riviera coastline (or the he Côte d'Azur as the French say) where you can spot the large yachts parked at the local port; in the distance the Mediterranean Sea houses the mega-yachts which couldn't come closer in!
  The whole vibe at the festival is not unlike most of the others, but what sets this one way apart from the rest is that it caters to the industry's biggest most international filmmakers and top-level movie stars who all come to support a diverse selection of films entered into the competition.
  People travel from far and wide to line the small street outside the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès which is where the A-List movie stars walk the red carpet in breath-taking gowns or immaculate tuxedos before attending their movie screenings inside.
  BUT, you've really not done the Cannes Film Festival until you've attended the biggest and best parties at the most exquisite hotels in town, thrown by some of the most luxurious brands and non-profit organizations.

High rolling in Cannes during the Film Festival was so much fun!! Can't
wait for next year!
Au Revoir!
