Will Smith nervous about daughter dating
VENICE, Italy, Sept. 8 (UPI) -- Director Ang Lee's controversial drama, "Lust, Caution," Saturday won the Golden Lion award for best picture at the Venice Film Festival.

Brian De Palma won the Silver Lion for best director for “Redacted,” based on a true story of the rape and slaying of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl by U.S. soldiers.
Brad Pitt won best actor for his performance as Jesse James in "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Robert Ford" class="tpstyle">Coward Robert Ford."
