NEW: dinner & a movie for mom
Comments (3)sue what a wonderful thought. i nominate my mom. we've been talking about converting the front bed to a perennial bed, since she's getting up there in years and it's soooo much work to do what she's done forever. so we are flexible there and i'll leave it up to her partner's discretion as to what to send her. i've put in some stuff, but it could sure use a lot more. movies - we did get her a dvd player for christmas - i would say the old time musicals -- you know all those roger and hammerstein type movies, or maybe rock hudson doris day type - the quiet man with maureen o'hara and john wayne. i'm sure there are others but they slip my mind right now. (if any of that needs to be corrected, i'll let you know, but she's very easy to please) she loves dark chocolate, especially butter creams. she loves irish stuff/knick knacks. this is truly wonderful, thank you so very much. maryanne...See MoreTonight: two classic movies about food
Comments (6)I just watched Babette's Feast last night, due to the recommendations on this forum. Wow. It's way more than a food movie. It's very deep. It'll have me thinking about it for a long time. I just read some of the history that surrounded it, which explained much about what was going on. Thanks for the recommendation, (even if I was a little slow to act on it.)

Comments (32)All mentioned already but here's mine: Julie and Julia - the Julia bits not the Julie bits - when Julia first arrives in France and is served Trout a la Meuniere and has an epiphany - starting her life-long love affair with French food and cooking. Eat, Drink, Man, Woman Tampopo Chocolat - "It's not my favorite." "It's not my favorite." "It's not my favorite." Finally - "THIS is my favorite." The top two without a doubt for me: Big Night - I can't tell you how much I love Stanley Tucci and Tony Shalhoub. Love, love, love them both. And number one ---- Babette's Feast - a movie that explains without words how food and sensuality are intertwined and the marriage between them is a human necessity. How Babette brought joy to the utterly sense-starved, ascetic townsfolk and their bitter, frigid and abstinent lives, lifting them at least for one evening to a truer meaning of life than they had ever let themselves experience. That Babette gave up everything to "feed" them in this manner, to share her gifts, to thank them, to deliver a dream... still an astonishing film....See MoreFavorite Food Movie
Comments (40)I've watched many a subtitled movie and much prefer it over dubbing. Try it. It doesn't take but a minute or so to get into the story and forget you're even reading the subtitles. Of course, it helps if it's a good movie, and most of the foreign movies that make it to the library are good movies. The only time subtitles bug me is if they use the wrong color of print against the background and it's hard to see, or if they go by too fast. That doesn't happen all that often, though. The only other problem with subtitles is you can't multitask while watching the movie. You have to pay attention. (Sometimes I like to cross stitch while watching tv.) I'm going to look for Year in Provence, but I know it will make me want to pick up and move. Sally...See More- 7 years ago
