This weekend at Theatre N:

El Bulli: Cooking In Progress

This is one for the foodies.  In Catalan, with English subtitles.  El Bulli, featured recently on an episode of Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" show, is a restaurant in Spain that's famous for its experimental dishes.  This documentary takes a close look at how dishes are conceived and tinkered with on their journey to becoming part of the restaurant's ever-changing menu.  Friday at 2, Saturday at 2 & 8, Sunday at 5.  $5-$7.  http://www.theatern.org/Films/2011/September/El-Bulli

Life Above All

In Pedi with English subtitles.  (No, I have no idea what Pedi is.)
"Just after the death of her newly-born sister, Chanda, 12 years old, learns of a rumor that spreads like wildfire through her small, dust-ridden village near Johannesburg. It destroys her family and forces her mother to flee. Sensing that the gossip stems from prejudice and superstition, Chanda leaves home and school in search of her mother and the truth."

Friday at 8, Saturday at 5, Sunday at 2.  $5-$7

---------------------

And on Monday September 5th, you have one last showing of Midnight In Paris, at noon, and of Tabloid, at 6pm.  These two movies were supposed to have been shown the previous Monday, and were postponed due to the storm.

---------------------

Theatre N is northern Delaware's best (and only) option for indie, foreign, and art house films.  Beer, wine, popcorn and candy are available very cheaply in the theater before showings.  The theater is located in the Nemours Building, between 10th & 11th on Orange St. (enter via the revolving doors on the courtyard side of the building).  Parking is free and plentiful on the weekends, or you can park in the Community garage across the street and get $1 validated parking.  Ask about the frequent viewer card.  For more info about the films or the theater:
