The summer brings even more movies--in the park! My first "park movie" was The Triplets of Belleville, a French-language (though with minimal dialogue) animated feature about an old Frenchwoman who indulges in her grandson's love of cycling by parlyaing this into his participation in the Tour de France in the 1930s. But alas, this is not to be, because he is kidnapped along with other cyclists by some dastardly New Yorkers who use him in an illicit gambling scheme. Grandma comes to the rescue, with the now-old aged performance artistes the Triplets of Belleville! The choice of Triplets was to coincide with Bike Chicago Week.
Other movies in the park I am looking forward to are some replays from the recent Latino Film Festival and favorites like Moonrise Kingdom, Back to the Future, and The Princess Bride.
