Susan Hayward "added plenty of sparkle to the Festival. Simplicity of her clothes stunned other beauties - but not photographers" as US-magazine "Movieland" writes. Cannes Festival 1956.

At an outdoor cafe during the 1956 Cannes Film Festival, actress Susan Hayward is the animated center of a group. With voluminous hair and dark sunglasses, she leans forward, gesturing as she speaks with the men surrounding her. While onlookers watch from the background, the evidence of media attention is close at hand: several twin-lens reflex cameras rest on the table among the drinking glasses, ready to capture the star who, as one US magazine noted, “added plenty of sparkle to the Festival.”
