The Cannes Film Festival is the biggest event of the year for movie producers, distributors and critics, with high-profile titles premiering at the Festival and thousands of movies screened and sold at the Cannes Marketplace. Much of what lights up movie screens around the world is influenced by what happens at Cannes, and the Palm d'Or is the biggest prize of the festival.

However, Antonioni truly broke open skinternational possibilities with the swinging London mystery Blow Up, which showcased name starlets -- Vanessa Redgrave and Jane Birkin, to be precise -- in amazing, taboo-shattering states of undress. The result was a critically hailed masterwork and global box-office blockbuster.

It's a hale and brave fellow who embraces the reality of copulating with two successive generations of directly descending females.
