Jeff Goldblum Brings 'The Mountain' to Venice Film Festival, Says It's 'Brilliant Movie & Poetical'!

Jeff Goldblum happily poses with his co-stars Tye Sheridan and Hannah Gross, and director Rick Alverson at the photo call for their film The Mountain held during the 2018 Venice Film Festival at Sala Casino on Thursday (August 30) in Venice, Italy.

The story follows the young Andy (Sheridan), who is employed by Dr Wallace Fiennes (Goldblum) as a photographer in his asylum as he attempts to advocate the lobotomy procedure. The movie also stars Hannah as Susan, a young women brought to Fiennes by her father to be lobotomised.

“I think Rick is a genius and this is a brilliant movie and poetical,” Jeff expressed at the press conference. “I’m an idiot so I love to know what you are talking about here. For me, it’s so rich, but I do love the ideas of the particularly human – but even more particularly American – utopian dream in its misguided elements, as Arthur Miller wrote about in Death of a Salesman, when a sculpture is too ambitious for notoriety, attention, glamour – empty glamour – and deluded fantasy, in too much proportion.”

“We saw how that can go very bad. In this movie, one of the most barbaric mistakes, the lobotomy, is depicted, and the American quick fix and narcissistic need for attention and assembly line solutions of an unnatural, inorganic kind… not factual kind,” Jeff added. “As it overlaps with the victims of deluded fantasy in the realm of spiritual aspirations, and in the particularly American variation of that, as it’s cropped up so abundantly since its inception. I’m provoked and inflamed by all of that, I think they’re important subjects to me and to us, I dare say. In the coming days I’d love to talk and hear more about those things.”

Jonathan Rhys Meyers Joins 'The Aspern Papers' Cast at Venice Film Festival!

Jonathan Rhys Meyers is dapper while attending the photo call for his latest film The Aspern Papers held during the 2018 Venice Film Festival at Sala Casino on Thursday (August 30) in Venice, Italy.

The 41-year-old actor was joined at the event by his co-stars Vanessa Redgrave, Nicolas Hau, Alice Aufray and Jon Kortajarena, as well as director Julien Landais.

The Aspern Papers is the first feature from director Julien and is adapted from the novella by Henry James, which is based on the letters Percy Bysshe Shelley wrote to Mary Shelley‘s stepsister Claire Clairmont.

Set in the late 19th century, the film sees Jonathan playing an ambitious editor Morton Vint obsessed with the romantic poet Jeffrey Aspern. He travels to Venice to find the poet’s muse, Juliana Bordereau (Vanessa) who lives in a palazzo with her niece Miss Tina (Joely Richardson) and is intent on controlling the secrets of their relationship. When Morton tries to manipulate Miss Tina to get to the letters, his real motivations soon become apparent.

Vanessa is the Golden Lion Lifetime Achievement Award recipient this year at the festival.
