Earlier this week, the fifty films showing at the Toronto International Film Festival were announced. Today, we have a list of the films showing in-competition at this year's Venice Film Festival. Highlights of the Festival include Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan, Sofia Coppola's Somewhere, Richard J. Lewis' Barney's Version, Julian Schnabel's Miral, and Tom Tykwer's Drei. What's also cool about this list is that we see the runtimes of each of the films. However, it's not unusual for a film to undergo changes between a festival and its general release.
Hit the jump for a list of all the films playing in-competition and click here for the films playing out-of-competition. This year's Venice Film Festival runs from September 1 – 11th.
