    The yellow poster, picturing French actor Michel Piccoli climbing the stairs of Capri’s Villa Malaparte in Jean-Luc Godard’s Le Mepris (Contempt) was lifted on two facades of the Palais des Festivals, where the films in the main competition will be shown from May 11-22.

    American actress Kristen Stewart has already been dubbed ‘Queen of Cannes’ by organizers as she stars in the opening film as well as Olivier Assayas’s in-competition film ‘Personal Shopper’, which will be screened on Tuesday, May 17.
