66th Venice Film Festival/Turkish Digest

Website Summary by: SM THOMPSON    


Turkish digest blog at its best and a feature on the Venice Film Festival which is in its 66th year and has the honour of
being the Oldest Film Festival in the World and it began in 1932.  A list of famous names appear which include Colin Firth as a Professor which might get him the Best Male Actor Award,
Michael Moore with his work Capitalism/A Love Story.  The board so to speak is headed by Ang Lee.
A Single Man - has a US Fashion Designer entering film making for the first time with A Single Man based on the life of Christopher Isherwood in the non tolerant early 1960s in Los Angeles USA.
There are many more favourites competing for these great film awards among them an Austrian Director Jessica Hausner whose film presents  PackageTours and Pilgrimages!  Plus a Turkish descent German director/Fatih Akin whose film is about a restaurant owner and a lot more besides
Great stuff from the Turkish Digest ... thanks ... nice work!
