Top 10 things to do in Las Vegas this week

February 26, 2009 - 10:00 pm

Movie: "Waltz With Bashir"

When: Opening Friday at local theaters

Cast: Voices of Ari Folman, Ori Sivan, Roni Dayag, Ron Ben-Yisahi

Director: Ari Folman

The story: Unable to recall his military service during Israel's controversial 1982 invasion of Lebanon, filmmaker Ari Folman tracks down friends and fellow veterans to discuss what happened there -- including the massacre of Palestinian refugees by Christian militia.

The buzz: This hauntingly surreal animated Israeli documentary may have lost its bid to win a best foreign-language Academy Award, but it has been collecting awards around the globe all the same, from a Golden Globe to a Writers Guild Award to six Israeli Academy Awards, including best film.
