MOVIES By KAREN KRIZANOVICH
Also showing

Bombon El Perro
A shaggy dog story with a difference, director Carlos Sorin presents a bittersweet story of a mature man whose life takes an upturn when he is gifted a white, pure bred Argentine dog. The parallels between the canine and human life are remarkable in this fresh, thoughtful drama.

L’Eclisse
This is the third installment of director Michelangelo Antonioni’s trilogy, which centres on the delicate nature of relationships in the modern world. Monica Vitti and Alain Delon star as lovers within an alien, automated and paved-over environment.
Bleak but stunningly shot and acted, this black-and-white beauty is redolent of the period‚s overweening fears of the future.

Thirteen Conversations about One Thing
Director Jill Sprecher’s elegiac, poetic look at luck, life and death is studded with brilliant actors and fine performances. The fundamental philosophical and mystical notions within are a plus. This is a film about what life’s like as it’s happening. John Turturro, Amy Irving, Alan Arkin star.
