Venice Film Festival is shaping up to be an absolute dream this year.
With Alexander Payne’s Downsizing opening the festival, Venice is also getting Darren Aronofsky’s Mother!, starring Jennifer Lawrence; alongside George Clooney’s Suburbicon, Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of the Water, and Martin McDonagh’s Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.
Though Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk is already being touted as an early favourite, the film is about to face some serious competition.
