As Cannes turns 60, Sarkozy lauds France's cultural exception

As the Cannes film festival turned 60 Sunday, newly sworn-in President Nicolas Sarkozy said its continuing success was the legacy of France's unyielding defence of its cultural heritage.

Sarkozy addressed the festival in a message to its president Gilles Jacob, which was made public by new Culture Minister Christine Albanel at a gala celebrating the anniversary of the world's paramount film festival.
