Venice Schedule Leak / Davis Details Telluride
VENICE SCHEDULE LEAK
World of Reel reports that at least part of the Venice Film fest has leaked. As frequent readers of MTFB know, there is often a fairly substantial crossover between films that screen early at Venice (the first three days) and the TFF lineup.
If the partially leaked titles and dates are correct it looks like Pablo Larrain's Maria is positioned to make the leap from Italy to Colorado as WOR says it bows in Venice on Aug. 29th. The other film that is suggested as a possible Venice-Telluride double play is Halina Reijn's Babygirl (however, see below) starring Nicole Kidman which is said to screen on Aug. 30th.
The reporting also indicates that, as previously reported, both Queer and The Room Next Door will be scheduled far too late to make an appearance at TFF #52.
I suspect that there will be other films that make the trip but as yet no other films screening schedule seems to have been revealed.
