Cannes Film Festival

1955

1953

The 7th Cannes Film Festival was held from 25 March to 9 April 1954. With Jean Cocteau as president of the jury, the Grand Prix went to the Gate of HellbyTeinosuke Kinugasa.[4] The festival opened with Le Grand JeubyRobert Siodmak.[5] This was the last festival with a predominantly French jury.

As the festival was becoming more and more a pole of showbiz attraction, scandals and romances of stars were appearing in the press. In 1954, the Simone Silva affair during the Cannes Festival ended up in the destruction of her career as an actor and her premature death, three years later.[6]
