PODCAST | Angelo Acerbi interviews Matt Smith, actor of the film Last Night In Soho.
Matt Smith is the bad guy of Edgar Wright’s Last Night In Soho, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival. He plays a second class limp who tries to become someone in the low life of Swinging London in the ’60s by inducing young girls with big dreams to become prostitutes. He is a funny and nice guy, though, as you can hear yourself in this interview.
Last Night In Soho: In this psychological thriller, Eloise, an aspiring fashion designer, is mysteriously able to enter the 1960s where she encounters a dazzling wannabe singer, Sandie. But the glamour is not all it appears to be and the dreams of the past start to crack and splinter into something far darker.
Javier Bardem will be one of the major guests of the Rome Film Fest 2026, receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award and presenting Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s El ser querido.
A double victory for Woman Unknown, major prizes for established auteurs and a strong showing for political cinema, new talent and Italian performers. The complete verdict of the Venice Film Festival 2026.
