A Rare Glimpse at Cannes
In July 2021, Hazel made a rare public appearance alongside her father at the Cannes Film Festival in France. Attending the premiere of “Flag Day,” directed by Sean Penn and featuring Moder’s work behind the scenes, Hazel’s presence was supportive, not performative.
Observers immediately noticed her poise, calm demeanor, and resemblance to both parents. Her blue eyes, blonde hair, and understated elegance drew quiet admiration, while her yellow lace floor-length dress and simple Mary Jane shoes offered a look both refined and age-appropriate. Minimal makeup and a simple ponytail completed a style that spoke of natural confidence rather than showmanship.
