For a long time, Venice, who has long thought of an outstanding film festival to launch the title in the awards season, experienced a modest wobble last year, at least compared to Cannes.
The Venice title won two of the 10 best pictures of the Oscar nominations (A brutal person, I’m still here) 3 from Cannes (material, Emilia Perez Big winner of Oscar aor). In addition to A brutal person and I’m still hereseveral other films ended as the Venice Film Festival last year. Queer, babygirl Golden Lion Winner The next room – However, he later failed to win an actual nomination at either the Oscar or the BAFTA Film Awards.
Venice’s competitor Joker: Folly gave herX was positioned as a nominee for the award entering the festival, seeing the possibility of Oscar’s glory evaporating with a shock to the Lido.
So, how will this year’s Venice Film Festival, which will end tomorrow (September 6th), affect the upcoming film awards season? One movie that received the biggest boost from Venice’s choice Hindrajab’s voice. The Kaouther Ben Hania film, which Tunisia chose as an entry for the international feature Oscar, may have hoped to have an increased chance of landing nominations in that category and emerge from Venice.

Original scripts could be the most fertile category in the film.
Benny Safdies Smashing Machine Similarly, with broad approval in Venice, the A24 should be able to launch a reliable campaign on behalf of lead actor Dwayne Johnson, who plays the real UFC champion Mark Kerr. Voters love the campaign story, and Johnson’s conversion from franchise action star to Oscar Calibre actor is fascinating. His physical transformation to play the role is not harmful, so look for the campaign on behalf of two-time Oscar-winning makeup designer and pioneering prosthetic artist Kazuhiro. (More skeptical voices say: Is Rock playing a wrestler a really transformative stretch?)

Netflix has announced three major films at the Venice Competition: Noah Banbachs Jay KellyGuillermo de Toro Frankenstein Kathryn Bigelows Dainite’s Housee.
