La Dulce Cinema: “Big Night” Screening

In celebration of Italian Heritage Month, join us for a special screening of the critically acclaimed film Big Night (1996). 

 

Brothers Primo (Tony Shalhoub) and Secondo (Stanley Tucci) are recent Italian immigrants who have staked their future on a new restaurant, Paradise, on the Jersey Shore. While Secondo handles the business side, Primo’s commitment to serving truly authentic Italian cuisine puts the restaurant’s survival at risk. The brothers put everything on the line for one “big night” when a famous Italian-American bandleader is scheduled to visit. This captivating story explores themes of family, tradition, and the immigrant experience through the universal language of food. Rated R. (1:40 min run time)
