FLICS presents The Flight of the Red Balloon
Dir: Hou Hsiao-Hsien, France, 2007, 113 min, PG
Taiwanese director Hou Hsiao-Hsien (Three Times) turns the details of everyday life to poetry in his tribute to Lamorisse’s 1956 classic short The Red Balloon. Juliette Binoche stars as a single Parisian mother who, overwhelmed by the complications of modern daily life, employs a Taiwanese film student as her son’s babysitter. As the babysitter and young child explore the streets and cafés of the city, they begin to share an imaginary world where a mysterious red balloon affectionately follows them wherever they go. In French with English subtitles.
Plus The original 1956 classic short film:
The Red Balloon Dir: Albert Lamorisse, France, 1956, 34 min, G
Albert Lamorisse's exquisite The Red Balloon remains one of the most beloved children's films of all time. In this deceptively simple, nearly wordless tale, a young boy discovers a stray balloon, which seems to have a mind of its own, on the streets of Paris. The two become inseparable, yet the world's harsh realities finally interfere. With its glorious palette and allegorical purity, the Academy Award winning The Red Balloon has enchanted movie lovers, young and old, for generations. In French with English subtitles.
