Here’s my collection of favourites from this year’s Wall of Scathing Reviews from the Venice Film Festival, which took place between August 27 and September 6.
Every year, a wall comes up where people can stick reviews of their films and the best scathing review wins the “Codacons Cup Prize” given out by the festival director Alberto Barbera.
I wonder if Letterboxd would love to get their logo on this. Hope it NEVER happens.
Here’s this year’s winner and the rest are added below.
Translation (via Google Translate):
La Grazia is clearly a fantasy film:
- Competent politicians
- An end-of-life law
- A Black Pope
- Clean Rome
- Who makes decent songs again
