ROME (AP) -- Filmmaker Sofia Coppola is going back to her roots, getting married Saturday in the southern Italian town where her great-grandfather was born....

Sofia Coppola wins the coveted Golden Lion award for her new film Somewhere as the Venice Film Festival comes to a close.

So Jarmusch plus Hartley plus Fellini equals Tetro, the new intimate little movie from Francis Ford Coppola? Yeah, I think so, and I'm good with that. Really good with it, in fact. The new trailer for the film, which will appear out of competition at Cannes, begins to show off Vincent Gallo (no, really, give the guy a chance, as he's not quite doing the old Gallo schtick here) as a guy who fled to Buenos Aires to escape his relationship with his father. His brother, played by Alden Ehrenreich (who I almost mistook for Anton Yelchin at first glance) shows up looking for Gallo, setting a little family drama back into play.

Sofia Coppola will be using Hollywood's iconic Chateau Marmont as the backdrop for her next feature, "Somewhere," the story of a "bad-boy actor" (Stephen Dorff) visited unexpectedly by his daughter (Elle Fanning).
