Oddball Cinema Presents: Food for Thought.
Join us for a screening of “Big Night” (1996) starring Stanley Tucci, Tony Shalhoub and Minnie Driver. Rated R. 1 hour and 47 minutes. Adults.
Two Italian immigrant brothers are struggling to save their failing restaurant in 1950s New Jersey. Primo, a passionate chef, and Secondo, a pragmatic businessman, pin their hopes on one extravagant evening—a lavish feast they believe will turn their fortunes around. As the night unfolds, tensions simmer, dreams collide, and the complexities of ambition, family, and cultural pride are laid bare. Rich in food and feeling, the film is a celebration of art, identity, and the cost of staying true to one’s vision.
