We had also already reported Luca Guadagnino’s “Bones and All” was Venice-bound back in March — Barbera officially confirmed that one today as well. People are right when they say that Venice skews more towards Hollywood. It’s become a recurrent theme so far since Barbera took over the prestigious fest. If I am correct in my surmising, so far we have these titles going to the Lido: “The Whale,” “Bones and All,” “The Son,” “Don’t Worry Darling,” “The Banshees of Inisherin,” “Tar,” “White Noise,” “The Master Gardener,” and “Blonde.” There is just no way all nine of these films are in competition, right? Schrader is out-of-competition, and I can see Wilde being there with him as well. There’s also Joanna Hogg’s “The Eternal Daughter,” which I’ve heard nothing about — maybe an NYFF WP? And, where’s all the buzz for the non-English stuff? Rumored to show up are films by Jafar Panahi, Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, Hong Sang-Soo, Fatih Akin, Rebecca Zlotowski, Koji Fukada, Amat Escalante and Frederick Wiseman (in French!).
