Surprise! The film is partly shot in black and white. Some folks are already complaining about Ana de Armas’ accent. Who cares. It’s also wonderful to see that NC-17 rating stamped on the screen. A September 23rd release date has also been announced which means Netflix is semi-burying this one when it comes to their awards campaigning. It also means there won’t really be a festival run beyond the big three (Venice/TIFF/Telluride) if they even choose to show it. If you remember, I had reported last September that “Blonde” had been accepted by Albert Barbera to compete at the Venice Film Festival DESPITE his reservations on the film. Netflix pulled the film out of Venice in the last minute. Contribute Hire me
