Netrebko stars as the beautiful blind girl who experiences love for the first time in “Iolanta,” while Nadja Michael is the unwitting victim of the diabolical Bluebeard, played by Mikhail Petrenko. Both operas are directed by Mariusz Trelinski, who was inspired by classic noir films of the 1040s. Sung in Russian/Hungarian.

Kate decides to adopt an orphan in Brazil and asks David to be a father figure. David struggles with his self-doubt while gawkily romancing his coworker.

The first film festival was held in Venice in 1932, and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was the first film to be screened at the festival. How about that little trivia? Since then, film festivals have been established throughout the world. Some of them better than others.
When the Rehoboth Beach Independent Film launched in 1998 it was done after a year of discussing the possibility of showing independent films in local restaurants. Since then it has become a respected Mid-Atlantic event. It is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization, as well. Film buffs come from the Mid-Atlantic area to enjoy features, documentaries, and shorts.
For complete info., please visit http://www.rehobothfilm.com.

You know the locals are dancing in the streets….the meters are down and the favorite restaurants begin their Second Season Specials. Even Ocean City friends decided to make that “long” trip to Rehoboth Beach.
So, our choice for the evening was Lupo di Mare, located at 247 C Rehoboth Avenue, in Downtown Rehoboth Beach. Tel. 302-226-2240. Website? http://www.lupodimarerehoboth.com. No reservations, just show up.

The bar was small but cozy.
The selection of wines was extensive.
Our server was charming and new the menu so well. The bread was so good; a little sweet and the olive oil was smooth.
One of my favorite appetizers..I could have it daily…the Shaved Brussels Sprouts. Only 3 ingredients are added to the shaved sprouts: truffle oil, almonds and pecorino.
The prosciutto…always salty; love it! Perfect with the sweet bread.
For dinner a Chicken Parmesan – red sauce spaghetti, and mozzarella. Our server knew there was someone at our table with a food allergy. Suggestions were made…and a wonderful dish was enjoyed.
Cindi’s Salmon looked beautiful. Her exact words were “delish”.
And, my Braised Pork Bolognese was out of this world….I wanted that comfort food and I got it.
Cindi and I shared the Flourless Chocolate Torte…if you like chocolate, this, you will like.
So much to catch up, I think we forgot that we were closing the restaurant down. Perfect for photos….check it out.
Women & Wine at Lupo Di Mare on Tuesday, 9/24. For a great cause, the Cape Henlopen Educational Foundation. http://www.capeeducationfund.org. The doors open at 6:30 p.m. with dinner being served at 7:00 p.m. Four courses for $39/per person, gratuity not included.
