The only unknown is the weather, the red carpet remains a constant certainty. The Venice Film Festival 2022, 79th edition is certainly among the most awaited, like the Oscars and Cannes. The Evening Lagoon, the true red carpet, marks the opening of the festival tonight, August 31, 2022, which will last until September 10. A ritual that began decades ago and has tripled today. There are now three red carpets: the arrival of guests at the Lido in the morning, the meeting with the press also in the afternoon and that of the evening when we present ourselves in “big dust”, as it used to be called. Catherine Deneuve, the mesmerizing diva, grumpy and whimsical as never before, but remains diva tonight from 7 p.m., who will be awarded the Golden Lion for her life’s work. Everyone has really met on the red carpet over the decades, because it remains a media moment and supplier of images, then for magazines, today for social media. He couldn’t do without a star. From opera divas like Maria Callas, accompanied by the gossip of America, the perfidious and mephitic gossip journalist Elsa Maxwell, to the “exalted” divas, as they once said, like Sophia Loren – eternal icon – and Gina Lollobrigida. The following models and pairs. Showcase to reveal and announce personal life milestones and details. Shakespeare summed up what the red carpet is, which reflects human existence: the whole world is a stage and men and women are just actors. They have their exits and their entrances and in life everyone plays many roles. As this photo album tells. In the photo the 60 Golden Lions created for the red carpet of the 60th edition / AFP
