And we are off to the races – the 82nd edition of the Venice Film Festival begins today and as per tradition Kevin Jagernauth and I look at what films might reign supreme this year by winning the coveted Golden Lion. Last year, Pedro Almodóvar‘s The Room Next Door took the top honors. How will the Alexander Payne jury vote? This is where we come in. Stay tuned for wall-to-all coverage of the 2025 Venice Film Festival — ten days on the Lido.
