"I got a taste of both the festival and the city during my whirlwind trip. The itinerary was packed, from a behind-the-scenes tour of the Palm Springs Convention Center - during which I got to walk around backstage, stop by the kitchens as they carefully prepped dessert for the gala, and get a peek at the seating chart - to a quick spin through Frank Sinatra's Twin Palms estate, to a spa day at the Parker Palm Springs."
"Among the stars I caught sight of were Elle Fanning, who was given the International Star award with the cast of Sentimental Value,on the red carpet; Teyana Taylor, who was there to present her One Battle After Another co-star Leonardo DiCaprio with the Desert Palm Achievement Award; and Adam Sandler, who - despite his reputation for casual dressing - arrived dressed to the nines to accept the Chairman's Award for his work in Jay Kelly."
The Palm Springs Film Festival Awards gala kicks off awards season and honors standout film performances while serving as a hub for Oscar-hopeful celebrities and film fans.

Honorees included Elle Fanning, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Adam Sandler, and guests ate a three-course meal with pumpkin-spiced pear salad, country gravy short ribs, and dessert options.
