Venice announced their lineup. Two Japanese films: Tsukamoto Shinya's Tetsuo The Bullet Man in the competition, and Rintaro's Yona Yona Penguin out. Donald Richie also tells me there will be a big event celebrating Kurosawa. He'll be joining people like Coppola, Lucas, and Co. on stage. From Rashomon to Tetsuo; strange world. Markus
