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.

Cary Grant and Kim Novak share an intimate, joyful moment during the 1959 Cannes Film Festival, where their romance was a celebrated highlight. Dressed in a dark tuxedo, Grant looks at Novak with a warm, amused smile. She, in turn, covers her face in a gesture of laughter or playful shyness, peeking through her fingers. Through the window behind them, a spectacular fireworks display illuminates the night sky, adding to the glamour of the celebratory gathering.
