Another surprise winner was Alex de la Iglesia, picking up the award for Best Screenplay and the Silver Lion for Best Director for Balada Triste de Trompeta. I was a fan of the film, but I certainly felt like I was in a minority in that regard on the Lido, and so I definitely consider that a turn up for the books, and a pleasant one, too.
In terms of the acting awards, Vincent Gallo had been many people's favourite to win for Best Actor for Essential Killing but the other bookies' pick, Natalie Portman for Black Swan, walked away empty-handed, the jury going instead for Ariane Labed in Attenberg, another film I liked very much, and one I will get around to reviewing soon.
The results can be found in full after the jump.

Bummer that BLACK SWAN didn't get anything... well, 'cept for Mila Kunas which was a surprise!
Considering QT's love of Asian cinema, I was shocked that both Tsui Hark and Takaski Miike walked away empty handed. 13 Assassins was great.
Perhaps he couldn't sway the rest of the jury?
There's been some rumblings from various media that he swayed a little too much.
