In 1975, the American Film Festival was created, which has been celebrated every year since then in September. This major event in the cinematographic life has notably allowed the constitution of Deauville's luxurious identity, which can now be proud of having welcomed the greatest names in cinema, including Robert De Niro, Clint Eastwood, George Clooney, Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise, Sharon Stone, Al Pacino, Julia Roberts, John Travolta, Nicole Kidman and many others.
This Hollywood glamour atmosphere, illustrated in particular by the luxurious Hôtel Le Normandy, is now an integral part of the city. A walk on «les planches» of Deauville offers visitors a tatse of this mythical event attended by the world's most famous actors and directors.
Walking in the footsteps of these renowned artists on this French-style "Walk of fame" contributes to creating a fascinating ambience, where chic is king.
