Stars like Sharon Stone, Bill Murray, Oliver Stone, Bella Hadid brought their own styles to premieres, with the breezy seaside air occasionally lending a dramatic whoosh to the flowing gowns and hair.

More than two years after its last edition, the Cannes Film Festival showed they could still put on quite a show.
