• 60 années déjà 60 années que le Festival du Film
  et de Cannes a obtenu leurs destinées pour former
  un couple dans lequel la passion n'a pas arrêté
  d'augmenter. 60 années d'éclat, de tapis rouge,
  de variété culturelle, de débats,
  d'applaudissements, de quantités des marchés, de
  rire et de déchirures.
