THERE’LL ALWAYS BE ANOTHER FESTIVAL: Show business by working definition is a struggle against all odds, a passion that burns brighter in the fires of rejection, and a spirit that defies constraints. And so it is with the Venice film festival, which may be quieter in numbers and include a mask in the dress code – but is screening all the same. Social ills, travel grievances and a pandemic there may be but the celebration of art and culture must go on; tonight, the coveted Golden Lion award will be announced, proving once again that there’s no business like show business.
