Jean Cocteau and Orson Welles. Nice Airport 1952.

Filmmakers Orson Welles and Jean Cocteau engage in a serious, candid conversation at Nice Airport in 1952. Welles, a large figure in a dark overcoat, is seen in three-quarter profile, looking intently at his companion. The leaner, older Cocteau, dressed in a zippered jacket over a sweater and patterned tie, returns the gaze with a thoughtful and engaged expression. The tight focus on the two men creates an intimate atmosphere, separating them from the other partially visible figures in the background.
