For film buffs, the Cannes Film Festival is now the world’s most widely publicized film gathering that is too
good to miss. Held annually in France, it not only offers filmmakers of all genres a rendezvous to showcase their
new artistic works, but also does great honour to cinematographic achievements.
The origins of the Cannes Film Festival date back to 1938 when the French government decided to set up
an international cinematic festival with support from the American and British counterparts. At that time, the
Venice Film Festival was the only platform for filmmakers on a global scale, but its jury’s decisions were heavily
influenced by fascist groups. This marked bias caused outrage among a vast audience in other European
countries and the U.S. One year later, the city of Cannes was selected as the location for the new festival.
However, in the middle of screenings, the festival was called off due to the outbreak of the Second World War.
Not until 1947 was the festival relaunched with 21 countries presenting their films at the first edition. Today, the
festival has remained faithful to its founding purpose and ushered emerging directors into the film industry at an
international level.

Câu 17. France plays host to the Cannes Film Festival every two years.
A. True B. False
Câu 18. By 1939, there was no international cinematographic event apart from the Venice Film Festival.

Câu 19. The first Cannes Film Festival officially took place in 1947.
A. True B. False
Câu 20. The Cannes Film Festival has undergone a shift in its purpose.
A. True B. False

Câu 21. What serves as the best title for the passage?
A. The History of the Cannes Film Festival B. The Origin of the Cannes Film Festival
C. The New Era of the Cannes Film Festival D. The Purpose of the Cannes Film Festival
Câu 22. What is NOT mentioned as the purpose of the Cannes Film Festival?
A. It gives a golden opportunity for filmmakers to introduce their new films.
B. It pays tribute to outstanding filmmakers.
C. It introduces potential directors to the international film’s spotlight.
