Cinema Fuji screenings announced

Another thing to do on Friday and Saturday nights. Too much to choose from. Planet Groove in the Red Marquee, Palace of Wonder and all the variety it entails, and on Friday All Night Fuji to boot. And now the choice got even harder.

In deference to Jeff's love of Planet Japan's scheduling times, the festivities kick off at 24:00 on Friday night with Martin Scorses's 1997 dramatisation on the early life of the Dalai Lama, Kundun. Following up will be the latest installment (number 29!) of "kind-hearted vagabond" Tora-san's travels at 26:15 in Otoko wa Tsuraiyo: Hearts and Flowers for Tora-san. That's of course midnight and 2:15am respectively for those of us on Planet Earth.

Saturday sees UA take to the screen instead of the stage in the documentary / live performance KUKURU - UA live performance @ Yanbaru, once again at 24:00 / midnight. Filling out the night FRF 2009 pays homage to the one that started it all, with Woodttock: 3 Days of Peace and Music at 25:30 (1:30am).

If you haven't had the pleasure of Cinema Fuji before, head over to the screening area between the Green and White stages come midnight and have yourself a chilled out eve.
