Returning to award the most prestigious prizes after having received them is becoming a habit. In 2009, she had already done the trick in Cannes. Isabelle Huppert is back in Venice for the Mostra, opened Wednesday evening, in the costume of president of the jury after having left, in 1988 and 1995, with that of best actress. The last time, it was for “The Ceremony”, it is clearly her thing.
She will be in prestigious company on the gondolas. After a 2023 vintage tarnished by the American screenwriters’ strike, all of Hollywood (Clooney, Pitt, Lady Gaga, Phoenix, etc.) returns to the city of the Doges for this meeting which also launches the race for the Oscars. See Venice and relive.
