Bonnie & Maude present: Watching You Eat

FREE / 21+

Bonnie and Maude, a femme-centric film podcast hosted by Kseniya Yarosh and Eleanor Kagan, is having their first live event!

Come join us for a FREE variety show of funny and serious slideshow presentations, clips, and a panel discussion of the on-screen motif of female characters cooking, eating, and falling in love with food. We will filet and flambé such films as Simply Irresistible, Bridget Jones’ Diary, Like Water for Chocolate, 9 1/2 Weeks, and many more. Culinary witchcraft, working women on their lunch breaks, and erogenous calzones -- we’ve got it all.

Special guests include Tom Blunt (creator of Meet the Lady), writer and publicist David Archer, L.V. Anderson (Slate’s recipe column, You're Doing It Wrong), I Love Bad Movies editor Matt Carman, and comedy writer/performer Meg Sweeney Lawless.

Show up slightly hungry -- we’ll have an Easy Bake Oven demo, plus some actual tasty snacks at the end!
