Anyway, you can see the Cannes train station in the foreground. I think it's a rather ugly building. The only neat thing about it is mural on the side is a recreation of Lumiere Brother's film of a train entering a station, which is one of the first films ever publicly screened. There are many film murals all over town... this is Cannes after all.
