Hello Everyone,
As most of you know, this week many Chlotrudis members head north to the Toronto International Film Festival! We will be seeing a whole bunch of films all week, and I was going to set up something for this week’s Monday Night Movie of the Week, but nothing really calls out for it. I will leave the decision up to Beth Caldwell, who offerred to plan this week’s Monday Night at the Movies. Meanwhile, keep track of what’s going on in Toronto via Chlotrudis Mewsings, the new Chlotrudis blog. I will try to report daily… or as close to daily as possible, with all the north of the border shenanigans. It all depends on whether or not we have a high-speed internet connection, so I will do my best.
So, apologies for the abbreviated announcement this week! A couple theatres didn’t have their listings ready for next week, but I wanted to get this on the site before we left. Have a great week, and next year, think about joining us in Toronto!
That’s it for this week.
See you at the movies!

BJFF co-presents final film in the Louis Malle Retrospective presented by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Harvard Film Archive in Cambridge
Sun, Sep 11, 1:30 pm, with an introduction by Chloe Malle, daughter of the director Thu, Sep 15, 6 pm Museum of Fine Arts, Boston AU REVOIR LES ENFANTS (France, 1987, 104 min.).
Few films have more effectively revealed the day-to-day atmosphere of the Nazi occupation of France, the suspicions and fears and misplaced glances that can suddenly bring on disaster. This moving tour de force takes place in the winter of 1944 as Julien and his schoolmates prepare for a new semester at their Catholic boarding school. Three new students are admitted, and one of them, Jean, becomes Julien’s roommate. Circling each other warily, the boys become friends; Jean is bright and talented but seems to be harboring a secret. The eventual revelation of that secret’surely one of the most powerful sequences in Malle’s entire body of work’will not only rob Julien of his childhood but, the film implies, will decisively shape the man he will eventually become.
