VENICE :Actors and close friends Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are reunited in"The Last Duel", Ridley Scott's epic drama about the rape of a noblewoman in medieval France which premieres at the Venice Film Festival on Friday.
Affleck arrived in Venice flanked by singer Jennifer Lopez, in their first outing at an official event since they recently rekindled their romance after 20 years. Considered as her illiterate husband's property, Marguerite de Carrouges, interpreted by British actress Jodie Comer, risks being burned at the stake by speaking out.
The film was co-written by Affleck and Damon, the first time the two actors have worked on a script together since"Good Will Hunting", the 1997 movie that won them an Oscar for best original screenplay. "One of the things that had kept us from writing for so many years was the way we wrote back in the 90s, when we were 22 and 20 years old, was really inefficient."
