Yikes! First Polanski's new film and now Nate Parker's.

Wow, Venice is not giving a shit about optics this year.
With that said, I actually liked Parker's last film, and the premise for this one does sound intriguing . . . but good lord, it's like they want the controversy.

Alberto Barbera revealed some dates of films on his Twitter.
I don't know if the same date means anything, but people have been saying that Marriage Story and Ad Astra got the same date as Roma/The Favourite, so that might be a good sign.

And Waiting for the Barbarians got the same date as The Nightingale, which won two prizes last year . . . Honestly, I wouldn't read too much into this.

Get your predictions in, gang. The poster who gets the most prizes correctly prognosticated gets bragging rights for the whole year!

Aaaand with that out of the way, I now know for sure that I will not be trusting anything the critics say at this festival.

Way too out of the loop to offer up anything close to worthwhile predictions, but I'm really excited to see the reactions to Ad Astra, Joker, The Laundromat & Marriage Story. I know they're the most obvious films to be interested in, but I don't give shit .

I've got a feeling Scarlett Johansson will win Best Actress. She definitely deserved it in 2013 for Under the Skin... We'll see!

Now we're starting to get word on Marriage Story: Time Out gives it 5/5, calls it a "triumph."Telegraph gives it 5/5, calls it "a screwball 'Kramer vs. Kramer'."Outtake Magazine gives it 5/5, raves it as "a beautiful film about love , full of humour and heartache, that simultaneously wounds and comforts."The Guardian gives it 4/5, calls it a "finely judged relationship retrospective."
Vanity Fair raves it, calls it a "thrilling double act" between Driver and Johansson.
ScreenDaily says it's not "comfortable viewing", thanks to "outstanding, stripped-raw performances by leads Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson "
Yahoo! Entertainment gives it an A-, calls it "brilliant" and praises its leads as giving career-best performances.
