New films by directors including Bradley Cooper, Yorgos Lanthimos, David Fincher, Sofia Coppola, and more will compete for the prestigious Golden Lion at the event
VENICE, Italy – The Venice film festival opens its doors on Wednesday, August 30, to a stack of highly anticipated movies but less star power than usual, as a Hollywood actors’ strike keeps many A-listers off the famed red carpet.
“We know that some talent will not be able to attend … But some others will come because they are working in the independent films,” Barbera told Reuters Television. “So everything is good. It looks very positive.” But away from Venice’s picture-perfect canals, a sense of crisis pervades the movie-making business, with strikes by both the main US actors and writers’ unions bringing much of the entertainment industry to a standstill.
