The Men of Venice '18 Can Get It.

TIFF begins tomorrow (Chris and Nathaniel will both be reporting to give you double the coverage!) but the 75th annual Venice Film Festival is still swinging. It concludes on Saturday September 8th so that's when we'll know who took the coveted Golden Lion (you may recall that a little film called Shape of Water won last year, though their winner is usually far less mainstream).

Alfonso Cuarón, Lee Byung-hun, Nicholas Hoult, Bradley Cooper

But here are the most handsome men in lux menswear we've spotted on the red carpet coverage. Joe Alwyn, Ryan Gosling, Matt Smith, Mads Mikkelsen, Matthias Schoenaerts and many more are after the jump...

Ryan Gosling and Director Andrea Pallaoro... yes, a director. That looks like that. Viva l'Italia!

Alessandro Borghi, Taika Waititi, Ryan Gosling, and Paolo StellaUnderrated actor Bill Heck, and future superstar Joe Alwyn

Sebastian Koch and Tory Kittles
Model Ivan Marino, Mads Mikkelsen, Taiki Waititi, actor Vladimir Consigny
Diego Luna and Mads MikkelsenLeonardo Sbaraglia (who is filming his first Almodóvar pictures this year) and Tom Schilling (star of this year's German Oscar submission "Never Look Away")

Cumberbatch, Byung-hun again, Mr Marion Cotillard (aka Guillaume Canet), and Director Donato Carrisi

French rapper/actor Sofiane and the ever perfect Matthias Schoenaerts

Jeff Goldblum, Tye Sheridan, Bradley Cooper, and Matt Smith

Alessio Boni and Douglas Booth

Matt Smith again and Jeff Goldblum again

DON'T YOU WISH YOU WERE THERE?

Top three:

Matthias Shoenaerts (always!)
Andrea Pallaoro (a director or a husband? 🤔😍❤️👏🏻)
Leonardo Sbaraglia (my crush since Wild Tales! I hope Almodovar put him in hot scenes like he did with Banderas ages ago!)

Have a great time in Toronto, Chris and Nathaniel. We look forward to everything you have to say about it.

Alessio Boni. There’s someone I’m fascinated by and don’t see enough of. (Caravaggio! Ulysses!).

I’d argue that The Shape of Water is not mainstream. Interspecies sex, female masturbation, among others, take it out of the mainstream.

I want Alfonso on his lonesome. You all can have the rest.

Jon - as far as Leonardo Sbaraglia is concerned, you should check out Burnt Money (2001). That's when my crush started.

Is it stalking if I tell Taika Waititi to call me? ;-)

September 5, 2018 | Unregistered CommenterDave in Hollywood

Taika Waititi can. GET. IT! Such a babe.

The lewks Goldblum and Gosling were serving are not only inventive and memorable but incredibly chic as well. Only Kittles (xoxo) and Smith hold a candle to them.

I WAS THERE YESTERDAY AND I SAW NAOMI WATTS! OMG, IT'S SO GLAMOROUS...
