The Golden Bear was awarded to The Wages of Fear by the audience vote.[2] Since 1952, the FIAPF had prohibit the festival from awarding any prizes by an official jury (which in the early 50's only Cannes and Venice were allowed to do so), instead the awards were given through audience voting until 1956.[3]
During this edition the first replica of the Bär, created by sculptor Renée Sintenis, produced by the Noack Foundry, was presented and awarded.[4]
The festival held a retrospective on silent films.[5]
