TVFC March Dinner and a Movie: "City of Gold"
PLEASE NOTE THIS FILM IS RATED R FOR LANGUAGE
Dinner at Red Feather Cellar in Boise, Idaho on Tuesday, March 31st at 6pm.
Join TVFC in the Cellar at Red Feather Lounge for a showing of "City of Gold"
"As the unabashed cradle of Hollywood superficiality and smoggy urban sprawl, Los Angeles has long been condemned as a cultural wasteland. In the richly penetrating documentary odyssey City of Gold, Pulitzer Prize-winning food critic Jonathan Gold shows us another Los Angeles, where ethnic cooking is a kaleidoscopic portal to the mysteries of an unwieldy city and the soul of America.
Bombing through colorful neighborhoods in his green pickup truck, Gold is sniffing out his next strip-mall discovery whether Oaxacan grasshopper soup, hand-cut tonkotsu ramen, or a particularly unctuous pad see ew. As piping-hot platters are served up, so are stories of immigrants whose secret family recipes are like sacred offerings pledged for the opportunity to build their American Dream. With eternal curiosity, razor-sharp intellect, and existential longing, Gold is a culinary geographer taking us where no critic has gone before. Like the film, Gold makes low culture high and high culture relevant, teasing out the meaning of life from a Korean taco, and pondering all that makes us different and all that makes us exactly the same. C.L."
Your ticket includes a locally conscious meal from Red Feather Lounge's kitchen, an alcoholic or non alcoholic beverage, admission to the movie, and gratuity. A short discussion will follow after the film.
