The artistic director of the 14th Rome Film Festival, Antonio Monda, announced the complete festival lineup during a press conference Friday at the Auditorium Parco della Musica, together with the president of the Rome Cinema Foundation, Laura Delli Colli.

One of the most highly anticipated films is Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, which Monda called "the best movie of the year". "It's a sort of epic saga of criminality with a lot of American history in the background, such as the Kennedy assassination and the Watergate scandal," he said.
