Celebrate Restaurant Week here at Pop’s Art Theater with a special one-night only screening of Big Night! Featuring a pre-screening panel with local restauranteurs to answer your bleeding questions about life in the kitchen. Presented by Old Abe’s.
In Big Night, Primo and Secondo, two immigrant brothers played by the inimitable Stanley Tucci and Tony Shalhoub, pin their restauranteur hopes on a banquet honoring Louis Prima to save their struggling restaurant. “Big Night is one of the great food movies, and yet it is so much more. It is about food not as a subject but as a language–the language by which one can speak to gods, can create, can seduce, can aspire to perfection.” – Roger Ebert
