Director Luchino Visconti (left) and actor Burt Lancaster walk through a crowd at the Cannes Film Festival in 1963, where Visconti’s film "Il Gattopardo" ("The Leopard") would win the Palme d’Or. Lancaster, smiling for the camera, wears a tweed sports jacket and carries a TWA travel bag. Beside him, Visconti, with a lit cigarette in hand, wears a dark suit and sunglasses. The bright sunlight casts strong shadows, capturing the dynamic, in-the-moment feel of their arrival.
