VENICE, Italy, Sept 10
(AFP) - Isabelle was
awarded a rarely-given Special
Golden Lion for her performance in Patrice
Chereau's "Gabrielle" at
the Venice Film Festival on Saturday.
Isabelle,
who plays a woman trying to escape from a passionless
marriage, accepted the award from jury
chairman Dante Ferretti. "Venice
brings me luck. There is no great role without a
great director,
so from the bottom of my heart I thank Patrice
Chereau for the
role of
Gabrielle."
Isabelle said, addressing the audience in Italian.
Instead of Best
Actress - A Silver Lion, which this year is
given to the Italian Actress
Giovanna Mezzogiorno for
her role as a woman beset by nighmares over childhood
incest in "La
Bestia nel Cuore" by Cristina
Comincini, the Special
Golden Lion rewards
Isabelle rather
for her Life Achivements than Gabrielle.
She has won Silver Lion twice
in the past. (go Forum for
more)
Gabrielle is
premiere today, at The
62th Venice International Film Festival
in official competition. Isabelle once again puts
in a strong performance as a woman of struggling to
break free from the golden prison of a passionless
marriage, making her a leading contender for the festival's
Best Actress.
Isabelle has won Venice's
Best Actress twice, in 1988
for "Story
of Women",
and in 1995 for "La
Ceremonie". Both films are directed by Claude
Chabrol and both she had shared with others. She
also had films in official competition over decades. Notably, "School
of Flesh" in 1999, "Comedy
of Innocence" and "Merci
pour le Chocolat" (in Honor Competition) in 2000.

NY Film Festival and the opening film of
