A four-hour documentary about Elon Musk, Martin McDonagh's dark CIA comedy "Wild Horse Nine" and films featuring Robert Pattinson, Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem are among the movies premiering at the Venice Film Festival in September.

Alberto Barbera, the festival's artistic director, unveiled the lineup Thursday for the 83rd edition of the festival, the first of many in a busy fall film season that culminates in the Hollywood awards showdown. Like the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year, the selection is lighter on Hollywood studio films than in years past.
