Brad Pitt sets the red carpet on fire.

He is the producer, with Plan B, of Andrew Dominik's "Blonde".

The Netflix film, which premiered in Venice, is in competition and sees Cuban actress Ana De Armas interpret the fragile life of Marilyn Monroe.

Dark tuxedo, sunglasses, sneakers and fans have been raving about the sex symbol actor for generations. 

Cheers also for De Armas who wore a pleated dress reminiscent of the movie “When the wife is on vacation” but in pink and not white.

Blonde tells Norma Jeane Baker, not the diva Marilyn, but the unwanted daughter, who ended up in an orphanage and then the fragile, traumatized woman, with the load of sadness for her mother who ended up in an asylum, the sense of abandonment, which she calls "dad" every man he meets, the woman who has to ask for approval, who can't carry the pregnancies.

Far from Marilyn Monroe, the actress, the myth that drives the world crazy. 

Based on Joyce's bestseller Carol Oates (The Ship of Theseus), the film was chased by the director, Andrew Dominik, for 14 years.

Filming began in 2019, on August 4, the date of the actress's death, and was also filmed in Marilyn's last home, in Brentwood, West Los Angeles, even in her bed where he stayed for 10 minutes after the last take, "imagining the feeling of deep despair".

Ana De Armas challenged herself, playing an icon, with a remarkable evocative similarity.

Aware of the dose of risk taken, the actress said: "she changed my life, go as you go".
