foxtongueThe Vancouver International Film Festival kicks off this week, running from September 30 – October 15. I haven't given the VIFF Film Guide & Schedule my usual care this year, but I've managed to find a number of interesting films through word of mouth, with thanks especially to Andrew and Keith. If there's anything you think I might fancy that I don't have listed, please feel free to make suggestions.

Fri, Oct 15th: The 4th Revolution - Energy Autonomy, noon, Empire Granville. The Illusionist, 9:45, Empire Granville.
Of everything listed, the one I'm most invested in is The Illusionist, a film I've been enchanted with since the trailer leaked on-line last spring. "Based on an unfilmed screenplay by Jacques Tati, Sylvain Chomet’s animated follow-up to his worldwide triumph The Triplets of Belleville is a less manic and even more beautifully realized story of a down-on-his-luck magician in the 1950s and the young girl who is innocent enough to be spellbound by his talents. A true gem of whimsy and melancholy, graced by an extraordinary musical score."
