The Triplets of Belleville
The quirky French animation gets the live score treatment.
Overview
One of the strangest and most distinctive animated films in living memory is getting the live score treatment at this year's Melbourne Festival. The tale of a kidnapped cyclist, his plucky grandmother and a trio of music hall singers, Sylvian Chomet's The Triplets of Belleville is an absolute delight, not least of all thanks to Benoît Charest's wonderful musical score. The composer to will attend a pair of screenings at the Melbourne Recital Centre, where he'll conduct a live performance by his band Le Terrible Orchestre de Belleville while the movie plays in the background. The group will also play a pair of gigs at The Toff in Town, if you want to hear what else it is they're capable of.
