AFP:
Italian cinema legend Bernardo Bertolucci was to receive a special award on the 75th anniversary of the Venice film festival on Friday, the final day of screening in the competition.[snip]
The director of "Last Tango in Paris" (1973), "The Last Emperor" (1987) and "Little Buddha" (1993) will be given a special Golden Lion to mark his achievements.
Isn't this a strange grouping? The first is justifiably considered a classic, the second won an Oscar, but the third... Hmmm. The less said about Keanu Reeves, the better, and even Roger Ebert didn't like it.
If the writer needed a current film, why not go with The Dreamers? Or does the AFP have an incest quota?
