Southern Hospitality debuted at Cannes Film Festival.
== Origins ==Although Southerners from all walks of life have been perceived as friendly for centuries, some like the writer Anthony Szczesiul claim that Southern hospitality "first existed as a narrowly defined body of social practices among the antebellum planters classes"
 It has also been used as the backdrop and setting of several films, such as The Last Horror Film (1982), Festival in Cannes (2001) and Femme Fatale (2002); some of these were actually shot on location at the festival
