It began today! But yeah, not BC.
About the movies, I was thinking how Alfonso Cuarón will present his new movie, Roma in competition there and his best friend, Guillermo Del Toro is the Jury President! I wonder if there is a conflict of interest! Anyway there is a lot of hype around the film and it's a Netflix movie! I can't wait too see the controversy if it or the other Netflix titles won something! They also have the new Coens brother's movie and the last Orson Welles movie which Netflix gave the money to finished! Just that!

I have been reading all the articles about the festival and really enjoying them. The Netflix controversy is especially interesting since I have been looking into the changing face of how people access visual media. The Orson Welles movie is specifically one that intrigues me (I love a lot of his work). Do you think BC might only make a public appearance at some sort of gala (because he is the brand ambassador for on of the festival's sponsors? Even still I think he would be doing BTS work for SunnyMarch I would have to imagine. Great place to network with a lot of important contacts. Venice is a beautiful city (although almost entirely unlivable, as a local informed us when we were there) so I hope to see some gorgeous backdrops in any pictures that do come out. And hopefully too we will get to see BC (and maybe Sophie too) on the red carpet at some point!! :-))

I have not idea what he will do there! I don’t know what a “brand ambassadors” do! They are sponsores so I hope he will be in some film related event and not just a brand event! I remember the last time he went to Toronto (the first with Sunny March and probably with free time than his other visits) he went to a lot of premieres and was seen by the press everywhere and with everyone from Christopher Nolan to Guillermo del Toro! A local newspaper even got a quote from him reviewing The Shape of Water!
There is a Jake Gyllenhaal movie in competition so it’s not just Guadagnino and BC from the Rio/Let It Fall project! Although he maybe is busy with the Spider-Man movie.

I loved all his work with Gong Li. Amazing stuff! A well deserved honor.

This is is tonight in Venice. People are also tweeting that they’ve run across Benedict and Sophie at movie screenings.

If she’s not pregnant, she really needs to find a more flattering outfit! But I really hope she is! It’s a couple of weeks before the Emmys, so maybe we’ll hear something more official then. They really need a cute little baby girl with blond curly hair!
Will they have a February baby then?
