In 1946 a one-off prize was awarded called the International Jury Prize. Maybe we could merge ir into this article.--

During the first years of the Cannes Film Festival many things were mostly undefined and uncertain. Prizes were given with various names and kept changing according to the moods of the year. Things started becoming more defined and fixed very gradually during the first two decades.

Walt Disney in 1953
Cannes official page shows no Jury award in 1953, but imdb (
see here) says the Jury gave and Special Prize this year to Disney's career. If it is true, it's worth adding it to the article. The thing is that if you google it, some other websites state it as a "Legion d'Honneur" "Director Award (entire career)" or "Special Homage". So it is not very clear.--

Very strange. I'm not sure IMDB can always be trusted. But the other websites look less trustworthy! And the official Cannes page doesn't even mention it... a press release from 1953 would be useful.

IMDb citations are not recommended for Wikipedia, but I have found it very difficult to find online citations for this subject, so I have left it there. I inserted the tag for the aforementioned difficulty and will revisit this article after further exploration.--
