The Cannes festival unexpectedly awarded an Honorary Palme d’Or to John Travolta this Friday just before the screening of his directorial debut, Propeller One-way Night Coach (Come Fly with Me). “I can’t believe it, you told me it would be a special night but I didn’t imagine it would be this,” the Hollywood star said visibly emotional and surprised to the Cannes general delegate, Thierry Frémaux, who was in charge of presenting the award. “The movies I have liked the most in my life have always been the Palme d’Or winners. I can’t believe it, this is more than an Oscar,” Travolta stated to the applause of an enthusiastic audience eagerly awaiting the actor’s appearance in the Debussy theater while the chords of You’re the one that I want, the main theme of Grease, played.
