At the 1963 Cannes Film Festival, director Luchino Visconti (left) and actor Burt Lancaster (right) are enveloped by a crowd of onlookers and photographers. Lancaster, star of Visconti's film "Il Gattopardo" ("The Leopard"), smiles and waves in a tweed blazer with a flower on the lapel. Beside him stands the more reserved Visconti, who had just received the Palme d'Or for the film. The spontaneous moment is captured in bright sunlight in front of an ornate building with classical architectural details.
