welcome to kino from the venice international film festival well it's been a while since myself and my colleagues. been developed but we just had to come this year i mean venice this. the stars the films the buzz i mean if i'm honest i think they. would have left the light up look at films like first maverick ryan gosling or a star is born superstar lady gaga yeah i mean the line up this year in venice made it even more difficult for the jury under president. to pick this year's winners in particular the golden lion. the venice awards crown but was an amazing festival mexican director alfonso cuarón deservingly the golden lion for the most personal film of his career. is stark and intense shot in shark black and white tells

a story of his childhood in mexico in the one nine hundred seventy s. . this film is an ode to the women who shaped his mother and his name. they survived all the trials life throws at them and hold the family together. the ground ground grand prize goes to the favorite by your growth loving the. fences of runner up on are also like to direct the spotlight on women. the favorite is a bizarre british period drama do your really. how does the kingdom think you mean and scored three women engage in a nasty dance of power and intrigue deliciously played by emma stone rachel weisz and as queen the phenomenal olivia colman the british t.v. star one venice is prize for best actor. and sings i'm not sure that we can trace the many i wasn't seeing. female characters represented in cinema and in an

interesting complex way as human beings they're usually the housewife or the girlfriend or the object of desires. strong women and powerful artists. willem dafoe won best actor on earth for his role as an aging mad genius vincent van gogh. i have my paintings. this year's venice with an appetizer perhaps for the coming oscar season. well we'll see how the film celebrated in venice this year due next year at the oscars because the venice film festival has become a platform for the academy awards ever since films like spotlight birdman or the shape of water premier here and went on to win the oscar for best film won director in venice who already has an oscar is florian henckel fun dawna's mark who won for his very first film the lives of others with his new movie never look away he's

trying to make it a two piece and the film is really a cinematic tour de force it's the story of a german family told through three generations and their struggles for life love and the pursuit of artistic freedom. client angle from donna's marcus a penchant for complicated stories his latest film is the only john one competing at the venice film festival done as mock took seven years to make his expectation to highlight. the film tells the story of course not and so high in the number he was christ just most of the best as. i may not have been. mr thompson in case the young east german who wants to become an artist by themself i've been called. his biggest critic is his own father no zinder that it will consist of us in then. after designers and such your brilliantly portrayed by

sebastien caught two rivals bound by a traumatic event in the past. with me head first and yet what fascinated me was that i had the possibility to depict how interwoven victims and perpetrators are within a family i found that intriguing like what is this bond the film shot cuts life beginning with his childhood in nazi germany most of us would constitute. the boys aren't his only son might but she is mentally ill. soonish that events in court as first back this should. be ok. kurt watches as is and has carried away by the nazis the man who will become his father nor as jointly responsible for the nazis euthanasia program and elizabeth is one of its victims. it's a lost cut never gets over even in adult hood in east germany could begins his

studies at the arctic atomy where he meets them out of his life and he's a plant you also meet a stepfather but is oblivious to his past because a band has adapted nicely to life in the g.d.r. but the story goes on the other wants all of us. to live. with us the magazine associate if he died of a could flees to the west and has accepted into the world renowned does a lot of academy of art is at liberty to live. his appetite. no real life names are mentioned but the film clearly reflects events in the life of god and other artistic greats from a time like yours of course. done as marcus said many times he didn't want to make a biopic he wanted to tell a story about the nature of art never look away is intensely at three hours long it's an ambitious work and the challenge for the audience.

is to found on his mark in never look away and the lives of others you take a look at german history and the light of victims and perpetrators. you seem to be fascinated by both why. many authors always the eternal question what would one of done back then for exactly this relationship between perpetrators and victims in this case within the family that i find so fascinating because it was like that throughout the whole country to a certain extent our country was a big family of victims and perpetrators after nine hundred forty five or also after nine hundred eighty nine and i think you can't really tell or countries big stories without that relationship. that the english tell your film is never look away what is it that we should look away from. what i saw it more as the kind of thing the anti says to the boy in the film always question its truth. and

make your own mind up about things but looking closely at them without judging them that's actually the most important thing to always take a good close look at things like that's what's meant. for my. we're here in venice you have a special relationship with this city you made your second film here the tourist. what was your most intense experience. i had. we had these huge stars and julian and jolie and johnny depp. and in every scene on a tiny intimate square we had thousands of people standing around and before every single take i had to grab the microphone and tell them we're really glad that you love our stars so much but please try not to scream and julianna and johnny so loudly while we're filming the show.

ok stop me if you've heard this one before a has been performance discovers a younger talent and decides to hitch his wagon to her rising star now that's the lot of a star is born a story that's been told and retold throat hollywood history in fact there's been three film versions of a star is born perhaps the most famous being the one from the one nine hundred seventy s. starring barbra streisand and kris kristofferson for the twenty eighteen edition we have instead of kris kristofferson bradley cooper who also directs but the real surprise is his leading lady none other than pop icon lady gaga in her film debut. bradley cooper plays musician jack mayne he used to be successful now he's an alcoholic. is the first time i'm worried about the.

phillies so man has lost his grip but then he sees allie played by gaga and he knows instantly she's cup what it takes to be a star just like in real life. while we were filming this movie we also had the opportunity watching and being a part of watching her seeing him every day and it was literally the whole crew would just sit back and we were all we all kind of forgot we were even doing a job i think of as the parents on the red carpet was one of the most magical moments of the first. it was if the public had been waiting for it for years and made for pratley kookery i i what i love so much about working with bradley is that you know there was a true exchange you know he accepted me as an actress and i accept him fully as a musician and. i own is almost as old as hollywood itself in the one nine hundred seventy six

version of the film barbara streisand and kris kristofferson play the love struck couple. bradley cooper turns the story into a modern romance where both artists meet on equal terms. sean penn was on twitter that was one of the best films he'd seen in years and we found enough to. say.
