It’s finally here, the review I couldn’t wait to write before the festival began. And now, after seeing Joker this morning, I am even more ecstatic to be penning this. Directed by Hollywood veteran Todd Phillips from his script, also co-written with Scott Silver; Joker stars the consistently remarkable Joaquin Phoenix alongside the legend Robert De Niro and the up and coming Zazie Beetz. 30/8/2019 Venezia76: Seberg film review.

Before coming to the 76th edition of the Venice Film Festival, I did a little research on the movie Seberg. To my surprise, there was already a significant buzz around this political thriller. Inspired by real events, Benedict Andrews directs with Kristen Stewart, Jack O’Connell, Anthony Mackie, Vince Vaughn, Zazie Beets and Margaret Qualley all starring.  By Adam Ray Palmer
What a second day at Venezia76, first we had the head-spinner Ad Astra, and now we have the gut-wrencher from Noah Baumbach… Marriage Story. Baumbach is no stranger to dysfunctional family tales following his 2017 picture, The Meyerowitz Stories, and now two years later he’s at it again. 29/8/2019 Venezia76: Ad Astra film review.

One of the most highly anticipated films of the festival for me was James Gray’s sci-fi drama that premiered today, a month before it’s official worldwide release. Starring in James Gray’s and co-writer Ethan Gross’s movie is Brad Pitt, Liv Tyler, Tommy Lee Jones, Donald Sutherland and Ruth Negga. 28/8/2019 Venezia76: La Vérité film review. By Adam Ray Palmer
The 76th Venice Film Festival is upon us and the opening night gala of Hirokazu Kore-eda’s La Vérité (The Truth) kicked off proceedings to a packed venetian audience earlier today. Starring in Hirokazu’s latest offering is Juliette Binoche, Catherine Deneuve and Ethan Hawke.  By Adam Ray Palmer
It’s been a long four years… and now the big man is back once again. In fact, this is the ninth (and final, apparently) outing for the talented Quentin Tarantino. Following the underwhelming The Hateful Eight, QT brings the world a powerful tale in Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood. |
