Friday, October 25 4:15PM (25M4)/ 9:15PM (25M8) MONICA PALOOKAVILLE (U.S., 1996 92 min.) Alan Taylor's debut feature is a refreshing change from the neo-noir violence that currently enshrouds American independent filmmaking. Starring William Forsyth, Vincent Gallo and Adam Trese as three Jerseyites driven by unemployment to stick up an armed car, this homage to the blend of neorealism and soulful clowning that made Big Deal on Madonna Street popular will delight fans of Italo Calvino, whose postwar short stories supply the moments of magic in the characters' fershluginer lives.Bill Krohn, Les Cahiers du Cinema.
