Several well known people were present at the Cannes Film Festival in 1963. Italian actress Claudia Cardinale, Luchino Visconti (above) and Burt Lancaster. Most attention however was given to the leopard, heraldic animal in the film "Il Gattopardo".

At the 1963 Cannes Film Festival, actress Claudia Cardinale, director Luchino Visconti, and actor Burt Lancaster appear on the beach with the living heraldic animal from their film, "Il Gattopardo." Cardinale, in a light skirt suit, joins a handler in holding the chain leash of the leopard as Lancaster (right) and Visconti (center) look on. The scene creates a striking contrast between the wild animal and the elegantly dressed film stars against the public, leisurely backdrop of the Cannes shoreline.
