I took a drive to Rehoboth Avenue yesterday just to see how the town looked after all the holiday festivities are now a thing of the past. The Avenue had plenty of cars parked on both sides of the street. I guess not everyone had gone home or started school.
Then, I got out of the car to check the beach and the boardwalk. I was, practically, the only person there. Granted, it was 2:30 p.m. and 36 degrees; not windy, though, but still cold, nevertheless. North or south; empty.
The sight of the empty beach and the boardwalk made me realize that it is now definitely winter; a much slower pace at the beaches. Don’t get me wrong; I love it this way. A time to recharge and enjoy the area in a most unique way.
A lot of restaurants, bakeries, cafes are still open; but some have closed this week-end for a much deserved rest. They will be open soon; in a couple of months.
And then the scenes will be the ones that give reason to come to our beaches; the boardwalk, the fries, pizza and best of all the unobstructed Delaware beaches.
In the meantime there are a few things that might be of interest to you this week:
The Rehoboth Beach Film Society is located in Rehoboth Beach. It offers something for everyone all year round; film events, youth events, the independent film festival, and so many more. Check their website www.rehobothfilm.com for all information pertaining to the Society.
Their event called Around the World is sponsored by the Rehoboth Beach Film Society, the Lewes Public Library and Movies at Midway. This series features critically, acclaimed, award-winning international independent films. It takes place at 7:00 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month from September through May, in the upstairs screening room at Movies at Midway on Rt. 1. For more info. call 302-645-9095.
Wednesday, January 5th – Jaffa – 7:00 p.m. at Movies at Midway – In the heart of the Israel city of Jaffa, Reuven’s garage is a family run business. The garage workers consist of Reuven’s daughter, Mali, his aggressive and distant son Meir, as well as the young Palestinian man, Toufik. No one suspects that Mali and Toufik have been in love for years, and that Mali is pregnant with Toufik’s child. As the two lovers secretly make their wedding arrangements, tension steadily builds between Toufic and Meir, who openly voices his disdain and prejudices about Arabs. As these relationships continue to intensify, emotions begin to boil, resulting in an astonishing conclusion.
This film is not rated and running time is 105 minutes. It is also in Hebrew with English subtitles, French and Kurdish with English subtitles.
Wednesday, January 5th – Fundraising event for the Rehoboth Beach Film Society at Striper’s Bites Bistro, located at 107 Savannah Rd., Lewes. I wrote about this very popular restaurant on November 5th and if you would like to see it just click on the month of November, 2010 and scroll down to the date.
5:00 – 9:00 Striper Bites will be hosting a special fundraiser program for non-profit organizations called Fork-in Fork-Out. If you dine at Striper Bites on Wednesday, 10% of your entire check will be donated to the Rehoboth Beach Film Society. Be sure to circle the name of the Rehoboth Beach Film Society on the “Give Back Slips” before you leave the restaurant.
The Cinema Cabaret is another series brought to all of us in the community by the Rehoboth Beach Film Society. It is now at a new location for this season. Fish On will be hosting this event which takes place 4 times a year.
Fish On is located at the Village of Five Points in Lewes. Watch an entertaining full-screen film and enjoy a delicious 3-course meal at Fish On; created to correspond with the film’s theme.
Friday, January 7th at 6:30 p.m. – NOTE: If you are interested in attending this event, please call 302-645-9095, ext. 1 as soon as possible. Tickets are non-refundable. They would like to complete the list by tomorrow. You can also buy tickets on-line by going to www.rehobothfilm.com/film_events_cinema_cabaret.html. You will be able to see the menu for that specific evening on the website.
The film is Woman on Top with Penelope Cruz who stars in this romantic fable as a gifted Brazilian chef. Happily married to her true love, Tonino, Isabella is content putting aside her culinary ambitions to be the chef at his local restaurant. But everything changes when her husband’s infidelities break her heart. Determined to start over and find the success that eluded her in Brazil, she travels to San Francisco where she begins hosting her own popular cooking television program called Passion Food. But Tonino’s restaurant struggles in Isabella’s absence and he soon comes to San Francisco to win her back. Can she find it in her heart to love him again? Released in 2000, runtime is 92 minutes. Rated R. English and Portuguese with English subtitles.
Please make sure you are on time to be seated at 6:30 to avoid film disruption. Thanks.
