Montpelier	6:30 p.m.	Film: The Barbarian Invasions — April 2nd - 8th A.O. Scott, The New York Times: "Denys Arcand resembles many of the same lustful, left-wing French-Canadian intellectuals who populated his 'Decline of the American Empire,' his 1986 comedy of intellectual grandiosity and sexual duplicity. This time, the bawdy talk and political banter is shadowed by mortality, and by the rueful awareness that history has had the last laugh. Remy (Remy Girard) is dying of cancer, and his friends, former lovers, and estranged wife gather round his death bed for a sentimental seminar replete with naughty jokes and wistful nostalgia. Joining them are two members of the younger generation — Remy's son Sebastien, a wealthy international banker, and Nathalie, a heroin addict — who lack both the bravado and narcissism of their parents. What makes this much more than a facile study in generational conflict is Mr. Arcand's acute sense of history: he has made the cultural contradictions of global capitalism into the material of heartfelt domestic drama that is also a broad, accessible and devilishly funny sex farce." Rated R, 99 minutes, in French with subtitles. Location: Savoy Theater, 26 Main Street. film@savoytheater.com, 229-0509, (800) 676-0509.
