Oxford SlowFoodStudentFilm night with OGS and Magdalen Film Society
Posted 25th January, 2009 by tomh
The
mid-life crises of two hapless Californian singletons on a weekend
amongst the vineyards of Santa Barbara, sampling its wines and finding
bitter truths about themselves at the bottoms of their glasses. The
main characters are portrayed with neurotic hilarity and all-too
painful honesty. Refreshingly free of saccharine sentimentality.

The Gastro society (OGS) and Magdalen Film Society have orgainsed an evening of food related films for next monday (the 26th). They are showing:
Babette's Feast - 7.30pm
From this
simple story, the film creates a delicate and moving picture of the
life of a small community, and its gradual realisation that spiritual
life must be balanced with sensory pleasure. The climactic feast is
quite simply the most beautiful vision of food ever committed to film.
It is the kind of food porn Nigella Lawson can only dream of.
