As Venice Film Festival prepares to welcome Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga to the 2024 edition, here’s why you won’t find Venice shouting about its propensity for glamour, like its younger rival, Cannes Film Festival.
Despite its older birthday, Venice Film Festival has always played second fiddle to its rebellious little sister, Cannes. The latter glamour vortex over 11 days in May was born in 1939 in response to the political fallout happening over at the Italian movie celebration , and was initially slated to take place in Biarritz. But when the owners of the glittering Riviera hotels lining Cannes’s famous Croisette mobilized, they won the gig and Hollywood’s ears pricked up.
There are freckles dotted on actors’ skin , tales of holidays to tell, and more space for the Hollywoodites to, quite literally, take up. There is no threat of a Kardashian-Jenner derailing the hot-ticket premiere of the week, because LA proper is either still circling the Med or IV-ed up to vitamin drips in Calabasas while resetting their rosé-dinted chakras and talking about their big business plans for September.
