More Venice Rumblings / Cannes Critics Respond / Ten Bets in a Month
MORE VENICE RUMBLINGS
Now that Cannes is well and truly underway...see the critical reactions so far in the next bloc...speculation about what films that might be playing Venice is heating up. As Venice spec heats up, so does the speculation about which films will play Venice and Telluride. As I have mentioned before, the two fests now commonly share 6-7 titles per year.
Variety's Nick Vivarelli posted on Thursday a piece titled: Beyond Cannes: Are Zendaya, Emma Stone and Bradley Cooper Already Packing Their Bags for Venice Film Festival?
His claim is that there are a number of films already lined up for Venice. Of the films mentioned in the article, a good number of them could be reasonable candidates to double-dip at Venice and T-ride including:
2012: 5/10
2013: 6/10
2014: 7/10
2015: 4/10
2016: 3/10
2017: 7/10
2018: 5/10

"Last month, I posted a reaction to Fincher’s upcoming film. It was very positive. From what I understood, Netflix hadn’t made a decision on whether or not this would go to festivals such as Venice and Telluride, but they’re leaning towards skipping them."
