Venice 2018

Hopes were high in Venice this year, and for the most part, they seem to have been fulfilled.

New films by Jennifer Kent, Jacques Audiard, Paul Greengrass, and Pablo Trapero.

Natalie Portman sings, Willem Dafoe paints, and Frederick Wiseman heads to Trump country.

Here’s how the competition is shaping up so far.

A solid first round of reviews for the Venice opener—and for Ryan Gosling’s performance as Neil Armstrong.

And Orson Welles’s The Other Side of the Wind will finally see the light of day.
