In Venice we also enjoyed some famous festivals also, as we were in Venice in the month of September, that is why enjoyed the Venice film festival 2009 which is the most one of the most famous festivals in Venice. Me and my sister are film fanatic, that is why did't want to miss the 2009 Venice Film Festival.It is one of the most important and the oldest film festival in Venice and it was founded by Count Giuseppe in 1932.

Since than the festival has taken place every year in late august or early september on the island of the Lido, Venice, Italy. That year the Festival held from September 2nd to September 12. Here we also saw the International stars which includes Charlize Theron, Nicholas Cage, Michael Moore and more. This year, Ang Lee was the president of the jury and screenings take place in the historic Palazzo del Cinema. Pixar's lifetime achievement award and Colin Firth's win for his role as a gay professor, distraught after the death of his lover was the highlights of this year.
