Brad Pitt surprised on Blonde’s red carpet at the Venice Film Festival

Perhaps it was the last major red carpet before the awards ceremony next Saturday at venice party. and they acted Brad Pitt Y Anna d’Armiproducer and performer of blondeabout Marilyn Monroe, competing for the Golden Lion.

In the new biopic about Marilyn’s life, the 34-year-old embodies the popular “explosive blonde”. “Regardless of how the film is received, Marilyn has changed my life,” confessed the actress. “I felt filled with sadness knowing everything that happened to her, even as a woman, and I didn’t fight those feelings, I didn’t want to protect myself from it,” she explained.

The film tells the turbulent life of Marilyn: her childhood, the daughter of a crazy single mother, abused by the men of the film industry, and her dreams of motherhood. The tale of that life is a fierce portrait of the United States of the 1950s and 1960s, of their patriarchal system, and even of President John F. Kennedy.

Marilyn “was a woman like me, the same age as me,” noted the actress, who said that “during the shoot I dreamed of her and imagined she was happy with the way we were treating her.”

Based on the novel of the same name by Joyce Carol Oates, it tells how she became a celebrity and emblem of the sexual revolution of the time, who died in 1962 at the age of 36. There are intimate and sex scenes about her, her marriages to baseball player Joe DiMaggio and writer Arthur Miller, as well as her threesome relationship with Charlie Chaplin’s son, among others. What she fails to do is clear up the mystery surrounding her death.

Ranked PG-17 in the US, which director Andrew Dominik has called “massive stupidity,” the film will be available for viewing by nearly 220 million Netflix subscribers and apparently won’t be shown in theaters.

Brad Pitt appeared

But it was Brad Pitt who dominated the red carpet. Pitt, who is one of the producers of the film, wore a classic tuxedo, and was the first of the team to arrive at the Palazzo del Cinema on the Lido, and aroused the enthusiasm of fans, as his arrival was not announced.

Ana de Armas was the last to arrive, wearing a spectacular pink pleated dress with a neckline, a design in the same color as the legendary dress worn by Marilyn Monroe at the “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” prom (1953). And she, like the actress, she wore an impressive diamond necklace, because as that song from the Marilyn movie said, “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend”.

And it seems that the spirit of Marilyn Monroe was very present during the making of blonde, according to the actress. Produced by Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment, the film is a fictionalized version of the iconic actress’s life and is based on Joyce Carol Oates’ best-selling novel.

They accompanied Ana de Armas (there is no time to die), Adrian Brody (The pianist), who plays her second husband, Arthur Miller, and Julianne Nicholson, as her mother, present at the press conference, along with the director, Andrew Dominik, who has already directed Pitt twice, most recently in Kill them softly.

“I really think she (Monroe) was very close to us, she was with us,” de Armas said. The film was shot, in part, in the apartment where Norma Jeane grew up and in the house where Monroe died, and it began on August 4, the date of the actress’s death. “Her dust is everywhere in Los Angeles and (the film) she definitely took on some elements to be a séance,” Dominik said.

“She was everything I thought, she was everything I dreamed of. It was all she could talk about. She was with me and it was beautiful, “said de Armas. It was a very strong feeling that there was something in the air. And she approved of what we were doing.” She the actress said she felt the heaviness and sadness of Monroe’s character during filming and left her on, pulling it out and using it in her performance. “I didn’t want to protect myself from that. It was important that I live it all, “de Armas said.
