Michael J. Werner’s Fortissimo Films was surprisingly almost shut out from showing in any of the sections at Cannes (they’re repping the Un Certain Regard title Miss Lovely), which only means they’ll got plenty in the coffers for the near future. Loaded in Asian fare, among the titles that stick out from the pack is recent Tribeca winner Una Noche from Lucy Mulloy, and for the near future Scott McGehee and David Siegel’s next film, What Masie Knew (see pic above), John Cameron Mitchell’s How to Talk to Girls at Parties and let us not forget the best picture of the year so far in, Antonio Campos’ Simon Killer.

Hollywoodnews.com: The fall film calendar is filling up. First, it was Toronto that hinted at 50 titles which will play its festival in September. This morning, the Venice Film Festival unleashed a full list of films that will compete at the 67th annual event.
A few titles already were on our radar. It had been reported that the Venice fest would open with Darren Aronofsky’s “Black Swan,” close with Julie Taymor’s “The Tempest,” and world premiere Robert Rodriguez’s “Machete” during a midnight screening.
In between, attendees can anticipate new films by Sofia Coppola (“Somewhere”), Vincent Gallo (“Promises Written in Water”), Antony Cordier (“Happy Few”), Julian Schnabel (“Miral”), Tom Tykwer (“Drei”), and, of all people, Monte Hellman (“Road to Nowhere”).
Screening out of competition will be films by Ben Affleck, Casey Affleck, Dennis Hopper, Stanley Kwan, Takashi Miike, John Turturro, and Yuan Zhang.
