"Bel Ami ” Will be Ready for Cannes or Venice

Cineuropa, a site dedicated to European Cinema, is reporting : The Uma Thurman and Robert Pattinson vehicle Bel Ami, adapted from Guy de
Maupassant’ s short story, will be ready for Cannes or Venice. Rights have already been
sold to Studio Canal Plus for France and
Germany. Optimum has UK rights. According to the team at RobPattinsonlife : The International Film Festival in Venice runs
from August 31 to September 10 and the
selection announced in July. In case the film
would not be presented at Cannes, it is
legitimate to think that will be offered the
choice of Venice. Remains whether the conditions to be proposed for selection are
the same as for Cannes, ie no diffusion in a
country other than the original one. If so,
expect to see the film ’ s release date pushed back again. We will know more next April,
the month in which the films will be officially
announced for the selection at Cannes.
