And on a side note … some things I love about Cannes … The street musicians who play only iconic French tunes; the beautiful blue waters of the Mediterranean; the number of women “of a certain age” who all seem to own the exact same silky terrier; the little French children who are dressed right out of a fashion magazine; the attitude that a cup of coffee should not be walked down the street in a cardboard cup, but rather lingered over whilst reading the paper or chatting with friends; lunch on the beach in the sun where you are permitted to take as long as you like to enjoy your meal.  And last but not least … the older guard at the press credential registration building who upon my very American “Good Morning” replied with his best French-accented Texas-twanged “Howdy!”  What could be more welcoming? Yes, Cannes is a lovely place.
