Cannes, May 16^th 2013

– Born of Caroline Scheufele’s passion for the 7^th art, the objective of the Trophée Chopard, awarded in conjunction with Variety magazine and with the support of Cannes Festival President, Gilles Jacob, is to encourage new talent in the world of cinema by rewarding a Best Young Actor and Actress of the Year. For this 13^th event, in addition to Caroline Scheufele, the jury consisted of executive editor of Variety Steve Gaydos, actress Olivia Munn, producer Harvey Weinstein, director Taylor Hackford as well as director and screenwriter John Wells. After much thought, these professionals decided on Blanca Suárez and Jeremy Irvine. Presented by Alessandra Sublet, the ceremony also looked back on the careers of the awardees with a short retrospective documentary. The two young actors accepted their prizes with gratitude and emotion. Created by Caroline Scheufele herself, and as precious to receive as to look at, the Trophée Chopard is a powerful symbol of the cinema – a strip of film roll finely crafted by the hands of the House’s master jewellers.
“The Trophée Chopard is one of my favourite events. A movie lover, it touches me immensely because it is a window on the future of cinema ” confesses Caroline Scheufele in an aside.

After the prize-giving, winners, members of the jury and prestigious guests congregated on the terrace of the Chopard Lounge, located on the top floor of the Hotel Martinez, for an elegant party during which guests were given an opportunity to taste Boizel champagnes and Grey Goose cocktails. In this refined setting, the guests also enjoyed an exceptional and exclusive performance by the excellent Solange Knowles in Chopard, who came specially from the United States for the occasion, and artist Alexandre Billard DJ set during the second part of the evening.

Amongst the guests invited to this evening with its “glamourous” dress code, were a large number of VIPs who responded to the invitation sent by the Co-President of the House of Chopard.
