Nicole Kidman won the best actress prize at Venice Film Festival for her performance in \u201cBabygirl\u201d on Saturday night, but was not on hand to accept the prize because of some devastating news.\n
After Kidman\u2019s name was announced, \u201cBabygirl\u201d director Halina Reijn took the stage and delivered written remarks in place of Kidman, revealing that the actor had traveled to Venice to attend the ceremony but had to leave due to news of her mother\u2019s death.\n
\n
\u201cToday, I arrived in Venice to find out shortly after my brave and beautiful mother, Janelle Anne Kidman, had just passed,\u201d Kidman wrote. \u201cI\u2019m in shock and I have to go to my family, but this award is for her.\u201d\n
The statement continued, \u201cShe shaped me, she guided me and she made me. I am beyond grateful that I get to say her name to all of you through Halina. The collision of life and art is heartbreaking. My heart is broken.\u201d\n
\n
Kidman\u2019s mother was a nursing instructor and was a member of the Women\u2019s Electoral Lobby, an Australian feminist group.\n
Kidman was one of the big acting winners on Saturday night at the Venice Film Festival Awards, alongside Vincent Lindon, who won the best actor prize for \u201cThe Quiet Son\u201d and Paul Kircher, whose performance in \u201cAnd Their Children After Them\u201d earned him the best young actor award.\n
\n
Pedro Almod\u00f3var took home the most prestigious award of the night, the Golden Lion for best film, with his \u201cThe Room Next Door\u201d starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton. Elsewhere, Brady Corbet earned the Silver Lion for best director for \u201cThe Brutalist.\u201d\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
