Vancouver Week in Widescreen: I thought I saw a Kedi cat

    1 of 4 2 of 4

      Kedi  This charming documentary about Istanbul’s cat population drummed up three sold-out screenings at this year’s Vancouver International Film Festival. Get your feline kicks when the Vancouver Turkish Film Festival brings Kedi back to the Vancity Theatre on Saturday (November 26). 

      Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie  For some reason, the Rio Theatre is reviving this kids-only martial-arts relic from 1995, and who are we to question their wisdom? Join six leotarded brats and the search for the mystic warrior Dulcea on Friday (November 25).

      My Name Is Emily  Evanna Lynch and the great Michael Smiley star in this coming-of-age drama, the directing debut of best-selling author Simon Fitzmaurice and Ireland’s entry in this year’s European Union Film Festival. Screens at the Cinematheque on Sunday (November 27).

      I Am Not Madame Bovary  From director Feng Xiaogang (or China’s Steven Spielberg, as he’s popularly known), this formally wild and politically sharp comic drama gets a single not-to-be-missed screening at the Vancity Theatre on Monday (November 28).

      Doctor Who: The Power of the Daleks  Among the sillier things it has ever done, the BBC purged its archives in 1974, meaning programs like this 1966 classic—in which Patrick Troughton replaced William Hartnell as the second embodiment of your favourite Time Lord—were lost forever. Now some clever buggers have reanimated (literally!) the six-part series using the still-existing audio recordings. See it at the Park Theatre and the Cineplex Odeon International Village Cinemas on Wednesday (November 30).
