Opening This Week

23 June 2008 8:09 AM, PDT | From ifc.com | See recent IFC news

By Neil Pedley

As the temperature rises, romance blooms amongst the geriatric set, "Mary Poppins" goes Bollywood, and parents will get their first chance to lay eyes on that which will likely have them driving to Toys "R" Us all summer long.

"Elsa and Fred"

Seeing anyone under 30 fall in love on screen is elusive these days, and so director Marcos Carnevale's gentle and endearing tale of romance between a couple with a real-life combined age of 176 is quite the breath of fresh air. In a role that nabbed several awards in his native Spain, Manuel Alexandre stars as Fred, an embittered widower whose chance encounter with Elsa (China Zorilla), a mischievous Fellini fanatic, leads the pair to Italy to fulfill her dream of reenacting the famous Trevi Fountain scene from Fellini's "La Dolce Vita." In Spanish with subtitles.

Opens in limited release.

Election Play Cancelled

10 June 2008 7:00 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news

A Broadway play which satirises the forthcoming U.S. presidential election has been cancelled after failing to fill seats.

David Mamet's comedy November, in which Nathan Lane played a president vying to stay in the White House, attempted to capitalise on election fever and draw in audiences to New York's Ethel Barrymore Theater.

But the curtain will fall on the show on 13 July, just six months after it opened.
