Now Showing: ‘DIANA KENNEDY: NOTHING FANCY’

HamptonsFilm is pleased to continue to curate the hit screening series NOW SHOWING, featuring acclaimed first-run, art house, independent, and world cinema. The only difference is that now screenings take place in the privacy of your own home.


DIANA KENNEDY: NOTHING FANCY

Directed by Elizabeth Carroll
(USA/Mexico, 2020, 82 minutes)

• Winner of the 2019 SXSW Special Jury Award for ‘Excellence in Storytelling’

“A lively… portrait of a woman as passionate about composting as chilaquiles, one who will pitch a fit if you put garlic in your guacamole.” The New York Times

Featuring extensive interviews with Diana Kennedy and famed chefs José Andrés, Rick Bayless, Gabriela Camara and Alice Waters, DIANA KENNEDY provides an intimate look at the leading expert on Mexican cuisine. The author of nine acclaimed cookbooks and a two-time James Beard Award winner, Diana is called the “Julia Child of Mexico,” but the feisty cook prefers “The Mick Jagger of Mexican Cuisine.”

  • Bonus: live conversation Saturday night!
    Celebrate the virtual cinema release with a virtual Q&A with director Elizabeth Carroll, chef Alice Waters (Chez Panisse), chef Gabriela Cámara (Contramara & Cala), and The New York Times food writer David Tanis.
