  • LAGFF Welcomes the Athens International Culinary Film Festival (AICFF) and Gastronomy Days in the Heart of Hollywood. on Its 10
    LAGFF welcomes the Athens International Culinary Film Festival (AICFF) and Gastronomy Days in the heart of Hollywood. On its 10th anniversary, the Los Angeles Greek Film Festival (LAGFF) offers a special thematic tribute to culinary Greek cinema at the Egyptian Theatre on June 1-5, 2016 “Reason to”, the company for “Gastronomy Days” and the AICFF, in collaboration with LAGFF, and with the support of the Greek National Tourist Organization (EOT), will be presenting to the American public, the Greek-American community of Southern California and to US media representatives a selective program of culinary events. To launch this inaugural collaboration, we are offering a cinematic three-course meal: We begin with hors d’oeuvres on Thursday, June 2nd at 4pm, screening seven animation and experimental shorts: For our main course, we will be screening Tassos’ Boulmetis acclaimed feature Touch of Spice on Saturday, June 4th at noon. For our dessert, we are offering Angelos Abatzoglou, Mustafa's Sweet Dreams on Sunday, June 5th at noon. The screening program is complemented by a live cooking show and tastings on Saturday, June 4th, 7:00-8:00pm, and a gastronomy panel discussion on Sunday June 5th at 1:30pm. In Spring 2016, 16 students of Loyola Marymount University interned with the Los Angeles Greek Film festival as part of a course taught by Dr. Zacharia, LMU Professor of Classics and LAGFF Director of Education and Culture. The course activities included research projects on Greek cinema, gastronomy and culture. According to “Reason to” President John Gourtzelas, and AICFF/Gastronomy Days Artistic Director at the 2016 LAGFF Takis Panagiotopoulos, “this initiative, which has already received the enthusiastic support by the public and culinary experts, is the first step for a more systematic presence and promotion of contemporary Greek gastronomy on the west coast of the United States”.

Home » The Commentary 20 films on politics and the media 29 December 2009 | Email This Post | Print This Post BY JOSEPH PLANTA VANCOUVER – A few weeks ago, Sean Holman, the talented and prodigious editor of Public Eye Online was on the program to discuss the year that was and the year to come in provincial politics. We got to talking movies, when I’d asked him if he’d seen State of Play, the fine American film based on the British miniseries of the same name. He suggested two other films: The Candidate and Shattered Glass. This got me thinking about what films had the best depictions of politics, media, journalism and the writing process. I came up with a few, and limited myself to twenty which seemed a workable number. Twenty favourites, as it were. Of course the list is subjective, and is in no particular order. I suspect if I ever get to watching Dr. Strangelove, or The Front Page, or Bob Roberts, or Silver City, they might be added to the list, perhaps even bumping off something already here. There’s nothing on this list that was made for television, otherwise the House of Cards trilogy would be here, as well as the original British miniseries State of Play, The Thick of It, The West Wing, and of course, the Yes, Minister/Yes, Prime Minister tandem. Perhaps Mr. Holman or others would like to add to or debate my choices.

The Others Ser ibero, ser ibero es una cosa muy seria, soy altivo y soy severo porque he nacido en Iberia. Y al que diga lo contrario Y al que ofenda a mi terruño Lo atravieso atrabilario Con esta daga que empuño Fray Apócrifo de la Cruz1 Long before Ruy Díaz de Vivar drove the Moors from Valencia and returned her fragrant orange groves to an ungrateful Alfonso VI—and long before anyone could suspect that in 1983 Angelino Fons would cast lion-tamer Ángel Cristo as the title character in his 1983 comedy, El Cid Cabreador—Iberian popular culture was often obsessed with monarchic, dictatorial, or hegemonic views of what is “us” and what is “other,” and with good reason! That catch-all category, iberos, was loosely used to name all of those prehistoric people living on the Peninsula before they had been invaded by just about every enterprising group armed with swords or something to sell. Celts, Phoenicians, Carthaginians on pachyderms, Greeks, Romans, suevos, alanos Vandals, Visigoths, Moors… no wonder the xenos was traditionally a cause for concern! The blunt, politically- and financially-expedient, medieval interest in the so-called “purity” of blood” and antiquity of Christian conversion served to consolidate power, property, and social stratification. 1 Better known as Moncho Alpuente.
