Betsie Beadling Expert Film Handler Posts: 178 From: Fairfax, Virginia, USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 11-26-2003 06:31 AM                     I've Tried Looking for DC, MD Va Area Movie Schedules, but not Had any Luck trying to find where it would Be Shown. I know its in Limeted Release I Think  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 11-26-2003 06:50 AM                     To my knowledge, only NY and LA right now. I'm looking forward to seeing this, but I'm not sure how big a release it will get. It looks to be a very interesting and original film.  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-26-2003 11:26 AM                     I've got the Triplets of Bellville booked here at the Rialto Cinemas Lakeside, January 9th. What a great film!  |  IP: Logged John T. Hendrickson, Jr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 889 From: Freehold, NJ, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 11-26-2003 07:57 PM                     We did a special showing of it at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ on Monday evening, Novenber 24th for our subscribers and donators to the restoration of film at the Basie. Thanks go to Tom Bernard of Sony Classics for getting us the print. I understand it moves to the Clearview Cinema in Red Bank on Friday the 28th  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 11-26-2003 08:24 PM                    Format seemed to be a bit ambiguous so I went with 1.66 and it looked great although it may well be compatible with 1.85 too.  |  IP: Logged Elena N. Solovyova Film Handler Posts: 44 From: Voronezh, Russia Registered: Feb 2003 posted 11-28-2003 04:17 PM                     Marked as 1.66 in the print supplementary leaflet. BTW, the Russian dub SR-D is ridiculously loud. Plays at "3.0" to get normal sound.  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-28-2003 04:25 PM                     I wonder why there was a Russian dub when there is hardly any dialogue? I saw Tripletts of Bellville at the Telluride Film Festival and Sony Classics ran it at Show East as well.  |  IP: Logged Elena N.

I have no idea. Those few words that was spoken on screen was dubbed, not subtitled... Probably it was considered "not arthousey enough" by the distributor. I've never seen any kids in the auditorium, though.  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-28-2003 04:44 PM                     Just because it is animated doesn't mean it is for Kids. What Time is it in Moscow now? It's Saturday 1.44 AM, got to bed. California is -8 Moscow is +3 There is an 11-hour difference between California and Moscow.  |  IP: Logged Elena N.

The middle of the night Of course, it is not for kids. But since there is no age restriction on this film, I expected to see some youngsters, just because "this is a cartoon, anyway".  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 11-28-2003 05:27 PM                    Thank you for the confirmation on the 1.66, Elena, as there was no notice with my print. Some platter jockey before me had written "1.85" on it but I know better than to listen to someone who goes through life thinking "Flat" and "Scope"! I neatly labeled the (single) can 1.66 but hedged by suggesting "1.85 acceptable." Now that the same print has returned for another press preview I guess I can block that out. If they don't have 1.66 they will run 1.85 anyway but no point in suggesting it!  |  IP: Logged Jean-Michel Grin Expert Film Handler Posts: 222 From: Geneva & Lausanne, Switzerland Registered: Jul 2002 posted 11-28-2003 05:45 PM                        Hi Ian ! We sheduled "Les Tripletttes de Belleville" at the Rialto, but in Geneva, Switzerland I cant told You that this cartoon is in 1.66 format (French flat format) And it was a really nice popular success in French part of Switzerland. I'm surprised that this movie will be diffused in the United States. But what do You think about this cartoon ?

The art was in a style I had never seen before. The protaganists are a grandmother and three old ladies. The filmmaker likes stereotyping people and uses stereotypes as a joke. It has a very French 'theatre of the absurd' feeling going for it.  |  IP: Logged John T. Hendrickson, Jr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 889 From: Freehold, NJ, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 11-29-2003 04:22 PM                     At the Basie, we had no choice but to play it in 1.85, as our print was black matted. Too bad, since it was shot in 1.66.  |  IP: Logged John T.
