From Napoleon Bonaparte to Bob Marley: Biopics, film biographies of famous people, are booming. Also at the Venice Film Festival. And recently often in multiple versions.
In the end, Bradley Cooper showed up in Venice after all. But only for a moment. Just before the start of the 80th Film Festival at the Lido, the paparazzi tracked him down and bagged a few snaps. This caused temporary surprise: Would the 48-year-old US star actor and director, whose Leonard Bernstein biopic “Maestro” premiered in the festival’s competition, actually walk the red carpet? Become a scab to bathe in flashbulbs? No: He just wanted to subject his latest screen work to a final technical test before its premiere on Saturday evening.
