mizoguchi: [Mrinal Sen] visited Cannes many times, both to show his films, as well as a member of the jury, and he always came back energized and inspired. One friendship that he particularly cherished was formed while he served in the Cannes jury in 1982. Gabriel Garcia Marquez was also a member of the jury that year, and they formed a very close bond. Later, they spent an extended time at a film school in Havana. In 1982, he came back from Cannes with a copy of One Hundred Years of Solitude. Later that year, on October 21 (I remember the date because it was my birthday) we came to know that Marquez had won the Nobel Prize in literature! Kunal Sen, Mrinal Sen’s son -- source link
