Add Michele Placido’s Il Grande Sogno, Jacques Rivette’s 36 Vues du Pic Saint-Loup and Christophe Honoré’s Non Ma Fille, Tu N’iras Pas Danser to the list of possible titles that will compete at the Venice Film Festival. I speculated on plenty of titles what we should be seeing at the Lido in late August, and these three titles will surely be added to the usual cluster of Euro titles.
Christophe Honoré’s Non Ma Fille, Tu N’iras Pas Danser (No, My Daughter, You Won’t Go Dancing) once again sees Louis Garrel make a contribution to an Honoré film — but this time the ensemble pic sees Chiara Mastroianni showcased in the lead role. This would be the filmmaker’s first time in Venice.
Fellow French filmmaker Rivette would bring his France-Italian co-production to Venice with Italian actor Sergio Castellitto playing alongside Jane Birkin. Speaking of Italy, veteran actor and current director Michele Placido will take audiences back to the 1968 with Italian stars Riccardo Scamarcio and Jasmine Trinca who both appeared in Placido’s last feature, Romanzo criminale.
