Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I’m your host, Nicolas Rapold. For the last day of the 80th Venice Film Festival.

Titles include: David Fincher’s The Killer; William Friedkin’s final film, The Caine Mutiny Court Martial; Orson Welles’s Portrait of Gina, a 1958 documentary about Gina Lollobrigida for an unrealized TV series; Cedric Kahn’s Making Of; the documentary Frank Capra: Mr. America; and restorations of Tarkovsky’s Andrei Rublev and Arturo Ripstein’s Deep Crimson. He also shares his thoughts on other films like Poor Things, and on the Biennale College film funding program.
