Post #1 - October 6th, 2009, 9:12 amI haven't yet come across other foodie films in this year's Chicago International Film Festival schedule, but I just added this one to my own list:Cooking History
Austria / Slovakia
Director: Peter Kérekes
Without the battlefield cook, there is no war—because without the cook, there is no food. Using the field kitchen as a lens through which to view the major European conflicts of the 20th century, this documentary allows the bakers, butchers, and chefs of the great European armies to recount their versions of history. Cooking History functions both as a fascinating lesson in the wartime kitchen and a pleasurable glimpse of some of its most animated characters.
Croatian, Czech, English, French, German, Russian, Serbian with subtitles, 88 minutes
Show Times:
* Oct 12, 5:00pm – $5
* Oct 13, 5:00pm – $5

Post #2 - October 6th, 2009, 3:38 pmThis one was on my list as well. I'm in DeKalb on the 12th so couldn't do Monday. I will be driving back from an afternoon meeting in Elgin on the 13th so I plan to go on that date depending on if I get into the city in time. It will likely be a last minute call.
