A large lion cub was one 'of the more exotic guests invited by Mike Todd to the gala supper he hosted following the screening of "Around the World in 80 Days". Cannes 1957.

One of the more exotic guests at the gala supper hosted by Mike Todd in Cannes, 1957, was a large lion. Following the screening of "Around the World in 80 Days," partygoers gathered before a barred cage to observe the animals, including a prominent male with a full mane. A low wooden plank serves as a simple barrier between the crowd and the enclosure, as a man in the background raises a camera to document the spectacle.
