Halina Reijn, the director of Nicole's new film "Babygirl," accepted the festival's Volpi Cup award for Best Actress on Nicole's behalf. She read a statement aloud from the Oscar winner about Janelle's death on stage. "Today, I arrived in Venice to find out shortly after that my beautiful, brave mother, Janelle Ann Kidman, has just passed," Reijn read to the audience. "I'm in shock and I have to go to my family, but this award is for her. She shaped me, she guided me, and she made me."
Nicole added, "I'm at the place where I'm being given the chance to view the world-because of how close we are, my mom is giving me the chance to view the world through an 81-year-old woman's eyes. That is so beneficial right now because she's so cognizant. She has every faculty, brain faculty, available. She hasn't lost anything."
