Kim Novak had been the queen of the Cannes Film Festival in 1956. She came again in 1959 as her film "In the Middle of the Night" was presented. Cary Grant had been separated from his third wife, the actress Betsy Drake, since 1958. The romance between Grant and Kim Novak was one of the highlights of the 1959 Festival.
In a glamorous, high-contrast photograph from the 1959 Cannes Film Festival, actress Kim Novak looks back over her shoulder with a gentle smile. Wearing a light-colored, one-shouldered gown, she rests her arm on a wooden railing. Novak attended the festival for the presentation of her film *In the Middle of the Night*, and her romance with Cary Grant was one of the highlights of the event that year. Faint reflections of other guests and photographers are visible in the glass surface behind her, capturing the nighttime atmosphere.
