With THE SALT OF LIFE, writer-director-actor Di Gregorio has created another sparkling comedy, this time with a dash of the bittersweet. THE SALT OF LIFEwill have its U.S. theatrical premiere on March 2nd in New York, followed by a national release.  In his warm and witty follow-up to his 2010 Italian sensation Mid-August Lunch,
writer-director-actor Gianni Di Gregorio has created another
irresistible manifesto of his love of women — but this time he plays a
middle-aged retiree who has become invisible to all distaff Romans,
regardless of age or relation. |

CO-OP invites you to Indulge Your Soul beginning October 15 & 16
 Brunch season is upon us and
that means different things to different people. For some, brunch
conjures thoughts of dancing, drinking, DJ’s, and disco naps. For others
it means nice conversation, a great meal, and rejuvenation after a long
week. Lower east side restaurant CO-OP Food & Drinkthinks it should mean both, and has created options for both this fall. Beginning on October 15 & 16, CO-OP Food & Drink in the Hotel on Rivington, will launch their Lost & Found Brunch. |
