The Philadelphia Film Festival Award Winning Films (#PFF22)
Last night I attended The Philadelphia Film Festival Closing Night film, Jason Reitman’s Labor Day – Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin have a tremendous amount of chemistry in this movie (review to be included in my #PFF22 round up). As usual, I didn’t see any of the award winning films. The Philadelphia Film Society is showing them all again today, Saturday 10/26 and tomorrow Sunday 10/27. So, I will see Vic +Flo Saw a Bear, but I’ve got too much else on my plate this weekend to see any of the others. Would love your comments on any of the winning films listed below or anything you saw during the…

Greater Filmadelphia: THE SUSPECT (#PFF22)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Most of the films I screen during the 22nd Annual Philadelphia Film Festival will be included in one round-up post at the end of the festival, however, The Suspect, having been made in Philadelphia by first time director Stuart Connelly, deserves its own post, for that reason, and because of the subject matter of race.

Sometimes I Actually Eat at Home: FALL HASH
If you follow Tinsel & Tine regularly, you know I’m a foodie who can, but rarely cooks. I like to be cooked for! I have done a couple of Trader Joe’s posts, which I need to get back to – Trader Joe’s: Chicken Quesadillas & Lobster Ravioli Trader Joe’s Balela Traders Joes: Veggie Dishes But I’m not one to normally put up recipes, However, this morning I threw together a Fall Hash that I thought was delish! So I thought I’d share: I had some left over baked sweet potatoes, an apple almost going to rot, some celery on its last legs, half an onion and 2 chicken thighs…

It’s Time for the 22nd Philadelphia Film Festival! #PFF22
Wow! Has it been a year already? Believe it or not, I lost a boyfriend over PFF21. We met on Labor Day weekend and mistakenly spent almost every moment with each other from that point on. I warned him that I’d be pretty busy for 2 weeks once the Philadelphia Film Fest started up, as I’d be trying to cover a number of films and events for Tinsel & Tine. He seemed okay with it in theory, but once I was in the midst of it all, he got resentful that it was taking up so much of my time, but also didn’t want to join me. There were of…
