...glided above the Croisette and, with Chris Rock doing play-by-play, landed safely on the pier. Then, after a few moments, the wires moved again and Seinfeld made a return journey. "Jerry Seinfeld forgot his keys," Rock announced, "and is going back to get them." Seinfeld managed to be his usual blasé self, saying as he flew, "They tell me Scorsese did the same thing last year for Departed."
