| | 1981 |
 1981 is a delightful comedy from rising Quebecois filmmaker Ricardo Trogi. This semi-autobiographical film is a throwback to all things 80s, and the delights of being an eleven-year-old, or at least an eleven-year-old in Quebec 30 years ago. This cheeky coming-of-age tale tells the comedic story of Ricardo, who, struggling with his family’s move and a new school, decides to become a liar... more & buy tickets
| | 3 Idiots |
 There’s a reason why 3 Idiots has become the biggest Bollywood film ever. Actually there’s several. First, there’s a complex and charismatic lead performance by Aamir Khan (who MIFF audiences saw last year in a different Bollywood film, the intense psychological thriller Ghajini), now easily the biggest Bollywood star on the planet... more & buy tickets
| | Age of Innocence, The |
 Jay Cocks’ first Oscar nomination came for this dazzling adaptation of Edith Wharton’s novel of mid 19th century New York. “(In this world) marriages are like treaties between nations, their purpose not merely to cement romance or produce children, but to provide for the orderly transmission of wealth between the generations. Anything that threatens this sedate process is hated... more & buy tickets
| | Ahead of Time |
 An inspiration not only for her ground-breaking career, but for her vitality and humor at 98 years old, Ruth Gruber has led a life almost impossible to believe. Born in Brooklyn in 1911, she became the youngest PhD in the world before going on to become an international foreign correspondent and photojournalist at the age of 24. With her love of adventure, fearlessness and powerful intellect, Ruth defied tradition in an extraordinary career that has spanned more than seven decades... more & buy tickets
| | Airplane! |
 Named “one of the 10 funniest movies ever made” by the American Film Institute. “For audiences increasingly tired with the pompous 70s disaster movies that merely recycled former glories, Airplane! was the key that unlocked them from the shackles of big budget boredom. The relentless stream of gags, many at the expense of glossy Hollywood dramas, were unflinching in exposing contrived plot devices to maximum comedic effect... more & buy tickets
| | Alexandra |
 “A Russian matriarch visits her grandson, a soldier, at his desolate camp somewhere in Chechnya. Not much happens during her stay - she interacts with the young recruits and makes friends with a Chechen woman. But in the hands of visionary filmmaker Alexander Sokurov, this simple material makes for a haunting drama about war, generational relationships and the human condition... more & buy tickets
| | Around a Small Mountain (36 vues de Pic Saint Loup) |
 Could this be the final film from Jacques Rivette, the great French New Wave director whose astonishing and unique films—including Celine and Julie Go Boating and The Duchess of Lamgeais—were the feature of a MIFF retrospective several years ago? Now in his 80s, the frail Rivette has often been known for the length of his films—most famously, the legendary 12 hour Out One. But Around a Small Mountain is less than an hour and a half, and feels like a work of consummate yet understated wisdom and charm, a work of distilled essence and understatement, a tale of lost love, chance encounters and the transformative power of art. “Rivette returns to a vintage theme in Around a Small Mountain, which stars Italy’s Sergio Castellitto as a good samaritan who stops to aid a distressed motorist (Jane Birkin), then accompanies her back to the traveling circus where she is returning after a long absence... more & buy tickets
| | Bastards of Utopia (showing with Occupation) |
 “Dramatic proof that the struggle for liberty is irrepressible” said Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States, of Bastards of Utopia, but it could just as well be said of Occupation, for Maple Razsa’s films, co-directed with Pacho Velez, are indeed about exactly that. In Bastards of Utopia, three Croatian activists struggle to change the world. As children, they lived through the violent collapse of Yugoslavia... more & buy tickets
| | Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo |
 In Japan, bugs are sold live in vending machines and department stores; plastic replicas are included as prizes in the equivalent of a McDonald’s Happy Meal and are the subject of the No. 1 videogame, MushiKing. From the smallest backyard to the top of Mt... more & buy tickets
| | Big Country, The |
 A restored 35mm print of a genuinely spectacular—and spectacularly underseen—western from a vintage era. “Director William Wyler made a rare western that eschewed the bombast typical of the genre, relying instead on superb characterization of complex characters to generate its impact. The result will enthrall those who enjoy a story with a little more depth that takes its good time to explore the emotional landscape before drawing to a close... more & buy tickets
