I’m getting excited about movie night this week because by Friday I should have my advance copy of Food Fight, a documentary about agricultural policy and food culture in the 20th Century.
I expect we’ll see Michael Pollan and Alice Waters front and center in the film, but I won’t know until I watch it.
There’s a trailer here and the promoters have a facebook page to create some buzz.
My favorite quote from the snippet is this, “Social activism can be making a good meal.”
Now that’s my kind of counter-revolution.
The free movie screening is at 3:15 p.m. Nov. 8 at Mann Chinese 6 on Hollywood Blvd. Too bad I’ll miss that. Maybe they’ll schedule a screening in Chicago or Indy.
