On the red carpet, Foster and Hedison, who’ve been married since 2014, were seen chatting with Cannes director Thierry Frémaux and French Minister of Culture Roselyne Bachelot. They were also spotted sharing a kiss inside of the Annette screening. Over the years there has been talk of Cannes having a rule that women attending the festival must wear heels rather than flats.

I think you made a mistake,” the actor said. RELATED: See a Rare Glimpse of Julia Roberts’ 14-Year-Old Son.
