[edit] International Jury Prize

In 1946 a one-off prize was awarded called the International Jury Prize. Maybe we could merge ir into this article.--Wafry 00:56, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Go for it. Cannes is weird. I give up trying to understand their logic! Cop 663 01:07, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Walt Disney in 1953

Cannes official page shows no Jury award in 1953, but imdb (see here) says the Jury gave and Special Prize this year to Disney's career. If it is true, it's worth adding it to the article. The thing is that if you google it, some other websites state it as a "Legion d'Honneur" "Director Award (entire career)" or "Special Homage". So it is not very clear.--Wafry 11:25, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Very strange. I'm not sure IMDB can always be trusted. But the other websites look less trustworthy! And the official Cannes page doesn't even mention it... a press release from 1953 would be useful. Cop 663 14:14, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
