AFI Film Fest French Film Schedule

...in chronological order (see below...way below).

There are five French film screenings. Perhaps they heard I was coming. And hence we have--
LETOP5 SUGGESTS FIVE FRENCH FILMS FOR NOVEMBER (alphabetically):
1. A CHRISMAS TALE (UN CONTE DE NOEL) - stars Catherine Deneuve!
2. THE CLASS (ENTRE LES MURS) - won Palme d'Or at Cannes Film Festival!
3. L'AIMEE + LA VIE DES MORTS - two Desplechin films for the price of one!
4. SUMMER HOURS (L'HEURE D'ETE) - stars a blonde-haired Juliette Binoche!
5. TOKYO! - part one was directed by Michel Gondry!

The AFI show dates and screening times, alas, do overlap here and there, but that's nothing that can't be remedied with some scheduling. You will see them all if you want to, trust.
- A CHRISTMAS TALE shows: Sunday, Nov 2 at 6.45pm & Friday, Nov 7 at 7.30pm
- THE CLASS shows: Sunday, Nov 2 at noon & Saturday, Nov 8 at 10pm
- L'AIMEE and LA VIE DES MORTS shows: Sunday, Nov 2 at 12.45pm
- SUMMER HOURS shows: Saturday, Nov 1 at 3pm & Wednesday, Nov 5 at 7pm
- TOKYO! shows: Saturday, Nov 1 at 3pm & Saturday, Nov 8 at 9.30pm

That is confusing. Well, to satiate your inner croissant-loving francophile, letop5 suggests the following schedule:
1. See TOKYO on Saturday, Nov 1st at 3pm.
2. See L'AIMEE + LA VIE DES MORTS on Sunday, Nov 2nd at noon forty-five.
3. See NOEL on Sunday, Nov 2nd at 7pm.
4. See SUMMER on Wednesday, Nov 5th at 7pm.
5. See CLASS on Saturday, Nov 8th at 10pm.


Voila. Now let me figure out what each of these movies is about. If they're showing at the festival, I assume they're "tres cool." But I guess we'll see.
