All the Beauty and the Bloodshed Wins Venice Film Festival Golden Lion
After nearly two weeks of lush red carpets, timed standing ovations, and viral Dont Worry Darling drama, the 79th Venice Film Festival comes to a close on Saturday in the Sala Grande at the Palazzo del Cinema (Lido di Venezia). Julianne Moore chairs the festivals jury alongside her fellow judges and elite film peers Mariano Cohn, Leonardo di Costanzo, Audrey Diwan, Leila Hatami, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Rodrigo Sorogoyen.To get more news about Watch Asians Online, you can visit our official website.
I feel like so often the discussion around the future of cinema ends up being a discussion thats more commercial, more business oriented, Moore said in her opening remarks on August 31. When we talk about the future of cinema it often degrades into what the future of the business is. Thats not the future of art.
Established in 1932, Venice is the oldest ongoing cinematic awards celebration and is regarded among the worlds most esteemed international film festivals. 22 titles are in contention for this years Golden Lion Venices prestigious top prize, awarded to Audrey Diwans searing abortion drama Happening in 2021 with no clear frontrunner.Adapted from Don DeLillos novel of the same name, Noah Baumbachs White Noise marked Netflixs first time opening the festival and struck IndieWires David Ehrlich as equal parts inspired and exasperating. Another adaption, one from playwright Samuel D. Hunter, Darren Aronofskys The Whale garnered significant buzz thanks to star Brendan Fraser: a likely Best Actor recipient for his performance as a depressed 600-pound man.
As for the Best Actress race: Ana de Armas stars as Marilyn Monroe in Blonde, Andrew Dominiks underwhelming psychological drama that still sees a strong showing from the Knives Out scene-stealer. Meanwhile, Cate Blanchett anchors Todd Fields TΑR as a world-famous classical composer and conductor in what Ehrlich called one of the most exciting new American films in years.
Also in competition for top prizes are Alice Diops Saint Omer, Kōji Fukadas Love Life, Rebecca Zlotowskis Other Peoples Children, Martin McDonaghs The Banshees of Inisherin, Luca Guadagninos Bones and All, and more.
Venices field, mirrored by stiff competition at both Telluride and Toronto, spells a muddled fight to the finish for this years Academy Awards Best Picture race. Other non-documentary films screened at Venice out of competition include Ti Wests Pearl, Olivia Wildes Dont Worry Darling, Kim Ki-duks Call of God, and Dead for a Dollar: a film from this years Cartier Glory to the Filmmaker Award honoree Walter Hill. |
