As anticipated, writer-director Jane Campion's 'The Power of the Dog' will make its world premiere in competition at the Venice Film Festival.
Jane Campion looks on track to take home her second Oscar for directing after being winning Best Director at the BAFTA Awards, with her Western drama 'The Power of the Dog' also awarded Best Film.
Expectations were understandably high for Jane Campion's first feature film in 12 years, but the majority of critics believe 'The Power of the Dog' has a deserved place among her previous successes following its world premiere at the Venice International Film Festival on Thursday.
