FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MARCH 2021 41 As of this writing, we continue to be unable to have our Cinema Club screenings due to COVID. When we are able to resume, we will catch up on the films that have been previously scheduled. Normally, our screenings are the second and fourth Sunday evenings of each month at 6 pm in The Lodge Theater. We typically screen smaller films, foreign films, indie films and documentaries. If you want to get on the Cinema Club mailing list and receive information about future screenings, send me an email at michelesrosen@gmail.com. Don't forget the "s"! Thank you for your continued support. If you have any questions about the Counter Culture Cinema Club or want to recommend a film, please email me at michelesrosen@gmail.com. ~ Micki Rosen Counter Culture Cinema Club Classic Film Group The Tuesday Evening/Day Classic Film Group looks like we are going to be on hold for some time, just like the rest of the world. Just for fun, here is some movie trivia for all: This one is for the James Bond fans. Name the title of the James Bond movie in which these two famous quotes were first spoken? The answer to last month's trivia questions: Notorious by Alfred Hitchcock and "After Hours" from The Twilight Zone by Rod Serling. Hope to see you at the movies soon. Stay safe everyone! ~ Paul Plamondon, 4seasonsmoviegroup@gmail.com Hello all… This March your Taste d'Vine Wine Club will be visiting a different varietal, as a refresher course or a beginning course! We went to Thrillist.com to give you a judgment-free, non-pretentious account of every major red wine varietal, under the tannin- loving tutelage of certified sommelier Mattie Jackson Selecman. She's a true believer in wine education, sans shaming. If you never ask, you'll never know, right? Pinot Noir Supple, silky, fruity, but with a little more complexity than merlot, pinot noir is just behind cab in terms of overall wine popularity. Compared to other wines, it has a lighter body, and is less overtly tannic (tannins in red wines can cause a drying sensation in your mouth). This makes it a very drinkable, yet respectable, wine. "Pinot noir is great for people who want something fairly accessible, but also want something a little more interesting," Selecman said. "There's often an underlying earthiness to this wine that makes it a little more compelling, and a great complement to so many foods." Basically, if you want a sure thing but also want to get a little weird, trust pinot noir in your glass. Best food to pair it with: "People say don't 'drink red wine with fish.' When combined with Omega 3s and all the fats in fish, tannins can create this weird metallic, copper flavor," Selecman said. "Pinot noir is very light in tannins, so it won't give you that unsavory taste. Pair it with some barbecue- glazed salmon, ideally." Take care all, we look forward to getting together soon.
