THE TRIPLETS OF BELLEVILLE (LES TRIPLETTES DE BELLEVILLE)
Cleveland Bicycle Week 2009

France/Belgium/Canada/Britain 2003, Sylvain Chomet
This zany, charming animated feature is one of the most acclaimed movies of the past few years, with an overall metacritic.com score of 91 (out of 100) and a 94% “fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It tells a wild and bizarre story in a quaint/quirky/retro graphic style: a cyclist kidnapped during the Tour de France and taken to a sinister metropolis is rescued by three elderly, eccentric French women who used to be music-hall stars in the 1930s. The great original jazz score evokes Django Reinhardt. 35mm. Subtitles. 82 min. www.sonyclassics.com/triplets/  Shown as part of Cleveland Bicycle Week 2009.
