Wild Horse Nine di Martin McDonagh in Concorso a Venezia 83 con Malkovich e Rockwell

So, there's this movie called Wild Horse Nine, directed by Martin McDonagh, that's competing at the 83rd Venice Film Festival. Set in 1973 on Easter Island, the story revolves around two CIA agents, Chris, played by John Malkovich, and Lee, portrayed by Sam Rockwell. They have a long-standing friendship and a history of covert operations. After a meeting in Santiago, their boss, M. J. (Steve Buscemi), sends them to the island without a clear mission, just as the September 11 coup is unfolding. Chris, who's about to retire, starts reflecting on his questionable past, including his role in JFK's assassination, while recording his memoirs. Lee has to deal with Chris's quirks and the pressure from superiors. The film blends comedy and tragedy, offering a buddy movie feel while critiquing the CIA and U.S. democracy. Mariana di Girolamo stars alongside them, and there's a cameo by Tom Waits, adding a western vibe with horses roaming the landscape. Searchlight Pictures is handling the distribution.
