Cannes (Côte d'Azur, Alpes-Maritimes), France, May 1955: 8th edition of the Cannes Film Festival, from April 26 to May 10: American actress Grace Kelly, 25, is in Cannes for the official selection presentation from the film "Une fille de la province" ("The Country Girl"), by George Seaton, for which she received the Oscar for best actress: here, the young woman walking on the Croisette, attracting all eyes. Smiling attitude, dressed in high waisted embroidered capri pants and a frilled white shirt, handling a Rolleiflex camera standing on the hull of an upturned boat in port. Behind her, a paparazzi photographing her. The previous year, she had already come to the Côte d'Azur in the summer of 1954 to shoot in the film "La main au collet" by Alfred Hitchcock.
