PARSONS
AT THE TOP -- Richard D. Parsons, chairman of
the board and CEO of Time Warner, will receive the
MIPCOM Personality of the Year Award at a VIP gala
reception during MIPCOM 2006. On the multimedia
mogul's board of directors since 1991, Parsons
served as Time Warner's president and co-COO (in
charge of content businesses such as Warner Bros,
New Line Cinema) before taking on his current
position. Little wonder, then, that last year,
Institutional Investor magazine named Parsons the
top CEO in the entertainment industry. 102 / Internet This

/ A h h
h . . . Fall in Cannes
no matter if
it's in the Spring or Fall, there's mild breezes
blow as the warm Mediterranean sun smiles over this
beautiful spot on the Cote d'Azur. There you can
feel a timeless sensuality, assuaging a nostalgia
for the Mediterranean which since as far back as
the 16th century has been a constant theme in many
a Northern European's
life.
"Now give us lands where the
olives grow," Cried the North to the South, "Where
the sun with a golden mouth can blow blue bubbles
of grapes down the vineyard row!" Cried the North
to the South. (to borrow a phrase from the English
writer Elizabeth Barret
Browning).
"Cannes," wrote Charles
Lentheric, the indispensable and erudite historian
of maritime Provence, in 1880, "is a town where you
feel no need to work," and "where the inhabitants
were not interested in the world that lay beyond
their shady gardens, or the sheltered balconies of
their hotels."
Now the world has come to
Cannes, chosen it to be their Mediterranean queen
for its annual events, and when you stroll along
the Croisette on some warm April day you will
hardly share Mr. Lenteric's sentiments. Voila!
Cannes! It has emerged so
cosmopolitan.
