No matter that the director is Jean-Luc Godard, because he would not be recog- nized on this street. A crowd turns out to watch as a bright, new convertible appears, and a glamorous movie star (Isabelele Adjani in a blonde wig as Brigitte Bardot) deigns to get into the car with a darkly handsome man. Among the neighborhood spectators is the convenience store owner, Monsieur Ibrahim (Omar Sharif); a kid who’s raising himself, Momo (Pierre Boulanger); a red-haired girl the boy’s age, Myriam (Lola Naynmark); and the good- natured prostitutes who work the street — Sylvie (Anne Suarez), Fatou (Mata Gavin) and Eva (Celine Samie). One of the prosti- tutes observes that the film star also has to do what a man wants her to do, not unlike a woman in her profession. (The film being made is supposed to be Godard’s Contempt.) Momo, called Moises by his father, has way too much time alone. His dad (Gilbert Melki) is so depressed he scarcely knows the boy is around. But the boy gets a new name and some much needed parenting from Monsieur Ibrahim, who overlooks his pilfer- ing and mischievously suggests a special pate he can serve his worthless father for din- ner. Sharif is still the great leading actor he was in his younger days. His performance is understated and unsentimental, and his SONY PICTURES CLASSICS, 2003. 12:05, 3:20, 7:15, 10:30 Friendship demeanor sets the emotional tone of the film. For the picture, Sharif wears his hair short and gray, and he suffers a prosthetic that makes his teeth look less cared for than is true for the meticulous former bridge cham- pion and international star. His character, Monsieur Ibrahim, has a kind soul, and he teaches the unhappy Momo how to smile and introduces happiness as a possibility the boy has never considered. Boulanger makes his screen debut as Momo, and he delivers a fine performance, showing his character mature under the guid- ance of the generous Ibrahim. The actor han- dles himself well in scenes with the various prostitutes who mother him and when he learns to dance and fall in love with Miryam. Monsieur Ibrahim makes a gentle, per- sonal case for religious tolerance and for friendship across generations. It opens at the Bijou April 16 for a brief run. ew www.catheaters.com C I N E M A 2nd & Jackson • Corvallis "In searching for his father, a hurt, neglected and previously unknown son has made an impressive work of art."

T his short feature film encompasses the impor- tant moments of a baseball game played more than 50 years ago in a Japanese American Zip (Derek Mio).and Hog (Marcus Toji) internment camp during WWII. The pitcher is a young the day of the big game. man nicknamed Zip (Derek Mio), and the catcher is Hog (Marcus Toji). The pressure is on to win the game, but Hog knows Zip has more on his mind than baseball. Zip’s ill father (Alan Muraoka) and caretaker mother (Keiko Kawashima) have left the camp for Japan. They will not return, but they want their son to have the advantages of growing up in the West, even under the circumstances of being interned. Zip lives with Hog’s family. But these two are also boys, American boys, and their thoughts in spring turn to girls. And baseball. Some of the film’s sweetest moments come during friendly flirtations between the boys and girls they like. Bring the whole family. The film is a fund-raiser for the Yujin Gakuen Elementary School 5th grader’s trip to Japan. Day of Independence will play three times on April 10 at the Bijou Art Cinemas: noon, 1:15 and 2:30 pm.
