For the 66th annual Cannes Film Festival, the Cannes Movie Stars Lounge has been installed in the Californie Suite of the Carlton Hotel. The Cannes Movie Stars Lounge stems from the success of past and ongoing projects both in Cannes and Venice, Italy.
On Tuesday 21st May, the lounge of Cannes Movie Stars celebrated a compatriot, hosting the only Italian film in competition at the Festival de Cannes, «La Grande Bellezza», directed by Paolo Sorrentino, with his great italian cast, as Toni Servillo, Carlo Verdone, Sabrina Ferilli, Isabella Ferrari as well as Roberto Herlitzka, Iaia Forte, Pamela Villoresi, Galatea Ranzi, Anna Della Rosa and Giusy Merli, Kravos.
The Director and his cast spent the entire day between press conferences and TV junkets in the cozy Cannes Movie Stars lounge, filling it with an authentic Italian atmosphere.
Sorrentino’s extraordinary work reminds us of the genius of Fellini in «La Dolce Vita». Both tell the hyptonic history of the main character, in a provocative, touching and poetic Rome.
Vying for the Palme d’Or, “La Grande Bellezza” has had a very positive reception. The film was greatly applauded by the audience after the projection. Project partners include: The Riva Cannes Boat Service, offering refined Personal Yacht and Concierge affairs; Martini Mobili, which has set up the entire lounge; Montbel, a designer furniture collection; San Benedetto, providing soft drinks; Immagicgroup, promoter and organizer of the lounge. As well as media partners, Getty Images and weekly Italian magazine Diva e Donna.
