George Clooney Says US Run by 'Least Qualified People'
- The 83rd Venice Film Festival opens on Wednesday with an opening ceremony honoring actor George Clooney with a Lifetime Achievement award, followed by the world premiere of British director Danny Boyle's 'Ink'.
- Star wattage has dimmed compared to recent years as rising production costs lead Hollywood studios to stay away, prompting festival chief Alberto Barbera to describe the American film industry as facing a 'serious identity crisis.'
- Twenty-One films will compete for the Golden Lion award, including director Martin McDonagh's 'Wild Horse Nine', director Lance Oppenheim's 'Primetime', and director Florian Zeller's 'Bunker' starring actors Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem.
- The festival serves as a precursor to the Oscars, where eight of the past ten Best Actor or Best Actress awards went to protagonists of films screened in Venice; U.S. actor and director Maggie Gyllenhaal chairs this year's main competition jury.
- Held on the Venice Lido, a barrier island in the Venetian Lagoon accessible by car, the festival concludes on September 12 with the premiere of director Giovanni Veronesi's Italian costume drama 'Dio ride'.
