Cannes festival 2019<br /> Only days away from the Cannes film Festival starting. The whole beach front is being transformed. Bulldozers are moving tons of sand on to the beach; truck loads sand being put on top of the washed away dirty sand from last year.More or less like a military to make a perfect beach. The hotels are being transformed and their prices rocket. Gone is the Cannes of 70 years ago when it was sleepy village and the building of the Cannes film Festival is being vamped up with large screens being directed in massive tents on the roof. <br /> Starting on the 20th of September, 1946 -21 countries came to Cannes to present their films at the first ever Cannes film festival. 72 years in, and the festival continues to not oly expand, but to push the boundries of cinematic art and cinematography. Celebrities, aspiring and already renowned flock the streets and directors, producers etcetera wait anxiously for their art to be screened, viewed by the elite - and later that day; viewed by the masses. <br /> CAP/GOL<br /> ©GOL/Capital Pictures
