You've already missed Fellini Night, French Movie Night and Music Night (including DVDs of music videos by Michel Gondry and Spike Jonze). But this week, if you're good, you may just get to see some stop-action animation by the Brothers Quay. For information, call 816-421-1634. -- Gina Kaufmann
Fu Fighters
SUN 7/25
Libraries are temples of knowledge, but for the next three weeks, the Downtown Central Library (14 West Tenth Street) is home to dudes flyin' and kickin'. The Kung Fu Film Festival continues at 1:30 p.m. Sunday with Iron Monkey. The film is a Robin Hood tale with the wire-bound acrobatics and logic-defying fight scenes typical of director Yuen Woo Ping (fight choreographer for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) as well as the Matrix films and both Kill Bills. If, like us, you weren't blown away by Crouching Tiger, then Iron Monkey -- with a story just as rich but not so ponderous -- is sure to pack more punch. Next week is 5 Element Kung Fu, which features both Shaolin and Wu-Tang. The festival wraps up with the 110-minute cut of Shaolin Soccer, the craziest movie about soccer since Victory. Call 816-701-3400 for information. -- Chris Sebela
Inner City Market
SAT 7/24
Every Saturday morning from now until September 25, the northeast corner of Troost Avenue and Linwood Boulevard (1100 East Linwood Boulevard) blossoms into a community market. Now in its sixth year, the Troost Community Market comes alive from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. Area produce growers and producers sell fresh fruits and vegetables (including some organic crops), eggs, meats, handmade clothing, jewelry and other crafts under the canopy of the old Firestone Building. Nonprofit organizations and live entertainers are usually set up, too, as well as activities for children. For details, call 816-756-1048. -- Michael Vennard
