The 8th Cannes Film Festival was held from April 26 to May 10, 1955. The Golden Palm went to the US film Marty by Delbert Mann. The festival opened with Du rififi chez les hommes by Jules Dassin and closed with Carmen Jones by Otto Preminger.
Until the 1954 Festival, the whimsical way various prizes were being awarded had drawn much criticism. In answer to this, from 1955 onwards, the Jury was composed of foreign celebrities from the film industry. In 1955, the first Palme d’Or was awarded, as the highest prize of the Festival.
Sophia Loren made a significant impact at the 1955 Cannes Film Festival with her stunning presence and elegant fashion; she was the most photographed actor at the Cannes. That year, she was an emerging star in Italian cinema, beginning to gain international attention. The 1950s marked the rise of Loren as a global icon, and her appearance at Cannes cemented her status as one of the most beloved and admired actresses of her time.
