The 83rd Venice International Film Festival began on September 2, drawing major figures from Hollywood and European cinema. Among the highlights was George Clooney receiving an honorary Golden Lion award for his cinematic career. Clooney reflected on aging, criticized the film industry's shift toward AI, and commented on the merger of Warner Bros. and Paramount, suggesting media is controlled by the wealthy. He also criticized U.S. President Donald Trump, calling America a 'caquistocracy' where the least capable lead the country. The festival features several films competing for the top prize, including 'Bunker' by Florian Zeller.
