FRENCH MOVIE

LES COMPERES

After her 16-year-old son disappears, a resourceful and charming woman named Christine (Anny Duperey) enlists the aid of two of her former lovers by convincing each of them that he's the boy's father. It isn't long before the two men, François (Pierre Richard) and Jean (Gerard Depardieu), meet by chance, trade stories and decide to team up in their search -- forming one of the oddest and most inept partnerships France has ever seen.

TASTING BORDEAUX

2004 Les Demoiselles Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Leognan. Grand Vin de Graves Red.

50% Merlot, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon.

A moderately deep colour, maturity at the rim already, with a little evolution also apparent, with some tobacco notes among the other mineral elements. Nice, fresh, light, a little compact texture through the midpalate, but otherwise rather soft and open. Nicely balanced though. Ripe, approachable, in fact ready now.

2004 Les Demoiselles Larrivet Haut-Brion

Pessac-Leognan. Grand Vin de Graves White.

50% Sauvignon Blanc, 50% Semillon.

Some new oak and notes of fennel on the nose, lovely, open and fresh, a touch green, some green capsicum, but a rounded, harmonious character nevertheless. Full, flavoursome, a touch creamy, but green like the nose. Chalky, shellfish crispness, certainly fresh and clean. Uncomplicated.

Both Locations: Saturday, June 14th: from 5 to 8pm

IPANEMIA

IPANEMIA in Beaumont.

Founded in 2003 as a duo with vocalist Alice Kollinzas and guitarist Thomas Niebrzydowski, Ipanemia set out to rekindle the roots of Brazilian jazz. Although originally performing an exclusively Bossa Nova repertoire, the band expanded its sound with the addition of James cook on double bass and drummer Jolie Clausen. These additions led to a repertoire which included original compositions as well as jazz and show tune standards. Ipanemia creates a relaxed atmosphere with tongue-in-cheek humor and an unexpectedly delightful presence.

Location: Friday, June 13th, 2008: from 7:30 to 10:30 pm

RABBI JACOB: Comedy. Victor Pivert (Louis de Funes) is a loving man -- as long as the object of his affection is Caucasian, French and Catholic. When it comes to foreigners, Victor is as bigoted as they come. So it's poetic justice when, on the day of his daughter's wedding, Victor bumbles across a group of Arab revolutionaries and is forced to go into hiding -- as a rabbi. Oy vey!
