Новый фильм братьев Коэн откроет Венецианский кинофестиваль 2008
Как сообщает Reuters, организаторы кинофестиваля в Венеции объявили, что новый фильм братьев Джоэла и Этана Коэнов под рабочим названием "Сжечь после прочтения" откроет фестиваль этого года. Актерский ансамбль - Джордж Клуни, Джон малкович, Брэд Питт, Тильда Суинтон и Френсес МакДорманд - обещает впечатляющее зрелище, хотя "шпионские страсти" в жанре комедии наводят volens-nolens на мысль - не возвращение ли это к "Невыносимой жестокости"?. Ждать осталось не очень долго. Премьера в Венеции 27 августа. Материал на языке оригинала см. ниже:
Coen brothers' new film to open Venice festival
Mon Apr 28, 2008 9:50am EDT
ROME (Reuters) - A spy comedy by Oscar-winning directors Joel and Ethan Coen starring George Clooney, John Malkovich and Brad Pitt will open this year's Venice film festival, organizers said on Monday.
The film, whose working title is "Burn After Reading", tells the story of a former CIA agent whose memoirs fall into the hands of two unscrupulous gym employees.
Also in the cast are Oscar-winning actresses Tilda Swinton and Frances McDormand, who is married to Joel Coen.
The film's world premiere will screen on August 27, kicking off the 65th edition of festival which runs until Sept 6.
The Coen brothers, who have built their career and a loyal cult following as Hollywood outsiders, won a joint Oscar this year for their work directing "No Country for Old Men".
The film also clinched three other Academy Awards, including best movie and adapted screenplay.
