The 66th Cannes Film Festival took place in Cannes, France, from 15 to 26 May 2013.[1] Steven Spielberg was the Jury President for the main competition.[2] New Zealand film director Jane Campion was the head of the jury for the Cinéfondation and Short Film sections.[3] French actress Audrey Tautou hosted the opening and closing ceremonies.[4] Actress Kim Novak was named guest of honour and introduced a new restored version of Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo.[5] The festival poster featured the real-life couple and Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward kissing during the shooting of A New Kind of Love.[6]

The festival Opening Film was The Great Gatsby,[7][8] directed by Baz Luhrmann. While Zulu, directed by Jérôme Salle, was the Closing Film.[9][10] The Bling Ring, directed by Sofia Coppola, opened the Un Certain Regard section.[11]

The French film Blue Is the Warmest Colour won the Palme d'Or. In an unprecedented move, along with the director, Abdellatif Kechiche, the Jury decided to take "the exceptional step" of awarding the film's two main actresses, Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux, with the Palme.[12]

Seven Indian feature films were premiered among various sections on the festival.[13][14][15] Actress Vidya Balan was one of the Jury members for the Main Competition of the festival.[16] The first Incredible India Exhibition, a joint participation of the Ministry of Tourism and Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Republic of India was inaugurated by Indian delegate Chiranjeevi.[17][18]
