Description:
    Food On Film returns for its 4th season!

Presented by Prez Hall & Lola's Local Food Lab, each film is accompanied by a small plate menu inspired by the film, and introduced by series producers Vanessa Downing (Prez Hall) and Kim Shkapich (Lola's Local Food Lab).

This season's theme: TABLE MANNERS: Recipes for Polite Society. Explore the confines of class and the balance of personal freedoms in the midst of tight family and social structures, often served before the entrée at dinner. Each film has a different recipe for power and passion as the protagonists hunger for transformation and acceptance.

Tonight we present Martin Scorcese's 1993 film THE AGE OF INNOCENCE. "Sumptuous" doesn't do this film justice. Scorsese's adaptation of Wharton's novel about 1870s high society and its discontents is so aesthetically stuffed, it's positively gushing, and that goes for the food, too, as the banquets brim with historically accurate cuisine. But it's the rigid social norms reflected in the precisely choreographed table manners that counter the seemingly joyous abundance and epitomize this story of agonized restraint.
