November 9th – The Big Night

The Big Night (1996) portrays two Italian immigrant brothers who open an Italian restaurant in America. One is an uncompromising chef and the other a businessman, handling the financial aspects. They manage to keep it afloat with their high ideals, in spite of few patrons other than a poor artist who pays with his paintings. The owner of the nearby successful restaurant offers to help organize a special benefit at their restaurant to keep the restaurant open. It’s a tiny bit like Babette’s Feast in the quest for noble eating as a fine art and features Minnie Driver, Marc Anthony, Liev Schreiber, Ian Holm.
