"Blood of my Blood, the new film from the Italy’s Marco Bellocchio, plays out like a beautifully turned novella—or perhaps two," begins the Telegraph's Robbie Collin. "This pair of lightly supernatural stories rhyme with each other across time, in ways that are oblique but sensually attuned." Cineuropa interviews the director: "In addition to Roberto Herlitzka, Alba Rohrwacher and Federica Fracassi, the film stars your daughter Elena Bellocchio, son Pier Giorgio Bellocchio and brother Alberto Bellocchio." Bellocchio: "I couldn’t not cast them, it came naturally to me. Your children are the blood of your blood, they’re the ones you have to face up to. You live a part of your life with them, you experience hopes and dreams, disappointments and joy together." We have more reviews, the trailer and clips. » - David Hudson...

And finally it started! The 67th Venice Film Festival, one of the most prestigious, and, by the way, the oldest film festival in the world, kicked off tonight at 7:00 p.m. in the Palazzo del Cinema featuring impressive Opening ceremony, hosted by the Italian actress Isabella Ragonese.
Black Swan made its world premiere as the opening film, bringing the American director Darren Aronofsky back to the Lido, where he won the top Golden Lion prize with The Wrestler (2008).
Of course, we already have some interesting reviews to share with you, for example this one (that comes from Variety):
“A wicked, sexy and ultimately devastating study of a young dancer’s all-consuming ambition, “Black Swan” serves as a fascinating complement to Darren Aronofsky’s “The Wrestler,” trading the grungy world of a broken-down fighter for the more upscale but no less brutal sphere of professional ballet.”
