    MOVIE NIGHT MENUS

    July 17, 2024 /

    I've seen The Philadelphia Story close to a dozen times, so it's funny that I don't remember the Stingers or Uncle Willy referring to them as "a formula that's said to pop the pennies off the eyelids of dead Irishmen." But I'll be looking out for this scene next time.  Maybe I'll even try stirring up this mint and brandy concoction, although it doesn't sound like a very appealing mix.

    THE TRIP TO SPAIN

    September 3, 2017 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Tinsel & Tine’s Look at 3rd in Foodie Film Series For a food and film blog, I have to admit my foodie movie posts are few and far between. Often, I’ll see a foodie film trailer and be like, I’ve gotta get back to that, but the plot doesn’t really pull me into wanting to see it. Not so with this series of foodie travel films starring British comedians Rob Brydon & Steve Coogan. THE TRIP TO SPAIN is the 3rd, written and directed by Michael Winterbottom. They’re actually a BBC TV series, starting in 2010 with THE TRIP, which are edited into feature films;…

    Food in Film: JEREMIAH TOWER: THE LAST MAGNIFICENT

    May 6, 2017 /

    by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor The artwork for the poster is what first drew me to this documentary, as most regular readers know, the “Tine” in Tinsel & Tine stands for the tines of a fork, so when I saw the “Jeremiah Tower” poster of the fork giving the middle tine, like a middle finger, it made me laugh! But when I got to the theater, I saw trailers for the new Richard Gere movie The Dinner and the rare glimpse of Debra Winger in The Lovers, and suddenly I really wanted to see a narrative film, not a doc on a temperamental chef. Surprisingly, I got what I was…

    Gorniak Goes for Gold: CITY OF GOLD (foodie doc)

    April 1, 2016 /

    The key to deciphering both the city it beautifully depicts and the man who eats it best – City of Gold By Tinsel & Tine Contributor Denine Gorniak (The Bicycle-Chef) What Jonathan Gold, Los Angeles Times food critic/writer, has done for food writing journalism and for the restaurants that he loves, the movie, City of Gold has done for Jonathan Gold and Los Angeles and its surrounding environs – it has planted taco covered kisses on them. The movie is a love-letter to both Mr. Gold and Los Angeles. The documentary turns the notion that there’s no “there, there” in LA and flips it over like the many tortillas that…

    Where Does BURNT Fall Among Foodie Films?

    November 5, 2015 /

      FOOD IN FILM: BURNT By Tinsel & Tine Editor, Le Anne Lindsay As you know, T&T is normally about film and food separately, but we always look forward to featuring foodie films or films with food like BURNT  and we had a great lead in, as prior to the screening, T&T contributor Diane Roka and I attended the opening of a new upscale Mexican restaurant in Ardmore called Besito (to be posted soon), putting us in a very culinary mood. Bradley Cooper has more than charisma, he has an over abundance of Chi, which radiates out from him; so for me, this role as temperamental and damaged chef Adam…
