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". Cannes Film Festival in 1963

At the 1963 Cannes Film Festival, actress Claudia Cardinale and actor Burt Lancaster crouch beside a cheetah, the focus of attention during the presentation of their film "Il Gattopardo." The animal represented the film's heraldic leopard. Dressed in a tweed jacket, Lancaster rests a hand on the animal’s back while director Luchino Visconti leans over the pair, grinning broadly. The scene is candid and lively as a crowd looks on.
