D enys Arcand’s long-awaited sequel to his 1987 Academy Award-nomi- nated The Decline of the American Empire reunites many of the same actors and introduces two younger actors. At 62, Arcand’s sense of history remains pointed, his wit acerbic and his filmmaking powerful and humane. The film is a testament to the joy of good friends and the art of living, loving and dying well. Rémy (Rémy Girard) is no longer a college professor whose womaniz- ing is discovered by his beloved wife, Louise (Dorothée Berryman). Rémy and Louise are divorced but love each other, even though Louise is still shocked to discover how many lovers her unrepentant ex-husband had. But now Rémy lies in an overcrowded, understaffed Montreal hospital ward dying of cancer, and Louise wants him to reconcile with their son, Sébastien (Stéphane Rousseau). Sébastien lives in Paris, where he works as an investment banker. Louise ignores her son’s resistance when she asks him to take over his father’s care. After a couple of initial blow-outs in the hospital between father and son, Sébastien steps up to the task. He throws wads of money at the hospital union and administrators to get his father moved to a refurbished private room on an empty floor. Sébastien also reconnects with a child- hood playmate, Rémy’s lover Diane’s (Louise Portal) daughter, Nathalie (Marie- Josée Croze). Nathalie, a drug addict, agrees to buy heroin and give it to Rémy, whose pain has become unbearable on the legal limit of the hospital’s painkillers. Now the movie relaxes. Old friends come to visit and stay for the duration, including Rémy’s former lovers Diane and Dominique (Dominique Michel). Pierre (Pierre Curzi) is married to a younger woman and has two daughters he’s crazy about. Claude (Yves Jacques) cooks gourmet meals for them in the kitchen in Remy’s room and brings along his Roman lover, Alessandro (Toni Cecchinato). By the time the picture ends at a lodge on a lake, we have seen Sébastien and Nathalie draw closer to the dying man and to each T he P rincess B ride PG [11:45], 3:05, 6:30, 9:55 Love and death in Montreal THE BARBARIAN INVASIONS : Written and ICHI THE KILLER Fri, Sat, & Sun 11:10 pm SAT MAT 3:00 pm LAST SAMURAI R [12:00], 2:30, 5:05, 7:25, 9:45 The Sensual Socialist Directed by Takashi Miike, Japan's premier stylist of ultra violence!

Rémy and his friends have many conver- sations but none more hilarious than that fol- lowing the question Pierre asks at the lodge, “Was there an ‘ism’ we didn’t worship?” For anyone who lived through the politically charged intellectual and historical era of the 1960s and ‘70s, the group’s answers to Pierre’s questions bring it all back.The Barbarian Invasions is now playing at Cinema World.
