What’s Pasta Night? :
Pasta Night™ is Story Screen’s monthly celebration of VHS-era cinema, and it’s now found it’s new home at the Poughkeepsie Underwear Factory! Each event will showcase multiple vendors within the VHS and film community offering awesome items for sale. Our kitchen will also be whipping out delicious plates of pasta. We’ll also have concessions, drinks, and Little Loaf Bakery will be slinging scrumptious sweets and focaccia! This leads up to a film screening on glorious VHS! Come on out and support those lovable, little, plastic boxes with other nerdz who share that same nostalgic love. And see a cool movie in the way it was truly never meant to be seen this large.
And this month is a big one, as we celebrate the birth month of Stanley Tucci, with trailers and clips from across the actor’s filmography, leading up to a special screening of BIG NIGHT, one of the best and funniest movies about food ever made! We’ll be cooking up some truly insane plates of pasta for this one, so make sure you come hungry!!
Film Synopsis:
Chef Primo (Tony Shalhoub) and businessman Secondo (Stanley Tucci) are immigrant brothers from Italy who open their dream restaurant, Paradise, in New Jersey. However, Primo’s authentic food is too unfamiliar for the local tastes, and the restaurant is struggling. When famous Italian-American bandleader Louis Prima is scheduled to appear at Paradise, the two brothers put all of their efforts into the important meal, which will likely decide the fate of their restaurant.
