Looking for something to do around Halloween, but too far away from the Yokai lecture at New People in San Francisco? How about watching Oblivion Island: Haruka and the Magic Mirror, a movie that had Colette salivating back in July:

Your favourite teddy bear. That model kit that took so long to complete. The picture book you used to read over and over again. The shining stone you found that day in the park. Where do all your childhood’s treasures go when you grow up? In this story, we meet fantastic creatures that gather all these little objects that fall into oblivion as they are forgotten by their owners when they step into adulthood. These creatures sneak into our world from a different dimension, and unseen by humans, they take all the ditched and forgotten “treasures” into their world. Here, they use their booty to build their own city, a fairy tale-like place called… Oblivion Island!

A special screening of the I.G.-produced CG film will be held on October 30th, at 6:30 PM, at The French Institute/Florence Gould Theater in New York, located on E. 59th Street between Park and Madison Avenue

Hit the jump for a trailer. Anyone interested in going? It looks pretty hot.
