French film show: Sweet nostalgia in 1980s coming-of-age story ‘Just an Illusion’ – arts24

Film critic Manon Kerjean tells us why “Just an Illusion” is more than just a tender study of young teenagers’ first love, and how its retro décor and timely themes add weight to a family dynamic with Camille Cottin and Louis Garrel taking on parental roles. We also check out offbeat romance “The Doll”, starring Vincent Macaigne, Cécile de France and newcomer Zoé Marchal. Manon tells us why, despite its unlikely premise, the film makes some pertinent points about gender roles and loneliness, while delivering plenty of laughs. The true story of Philippe Croizon, a paraplegic who swam the English Channel, is brought to the screen in “For Better or Worse”, with para-athlete Pierre Rabine in the lead role. Plus we dip into Claire Denis’s latest film “The Fence” as the director depicts the tensions brewing on a construction site in West Africa. Source link

Benjamina Ebuehi’s sweet and salty chocolate chip cookies recipe | Biscuits

Everyone has different ideas on what makes the perfect chocolate chip cookie, with everything from thickness and chewiness to the amount of chocolate up for debate. In my opinion, no cookie is worth eating if it’s not well salted; without it, everything feels a little off balance and flat. My not-so-secret way of salting cookies is to use a bit of miso. Not so much that it becomes a miso cookie, but just enough to bring a slightly savoury, umami vibe that makes the cookies a bit more complex-tasting and not sickly sweet.

How to buy cheaper theatre tickets – and where you can find the ‘sweet spot’ to sit | Money News

You can’t beat a trip out to the theatre, but the scramble to buy tickets can feel like a theatrical performance in itself. We’ve spoken to experts to help you learn the tips and tricks behind buying tickets like a pro, from the best seats in the house to the cheapest times to go. The first thing you’ll need to consider is whether you should get your tickets in person or browse online for the best deals. It’s rarely cheaper to pick them up in person, Steve Marmion, chief executive and director of programming of Watford Palace Theatre explains. That’s because theatres now charge for printed tickets. Digital tickets are usually free, and everything has started moving online, he adds. But it’s important to understand what type of theatre you’re attending. More on Buy Like A Pro… “If it’s a charity, I’d encourage you not to focus solely on saving money if you can possibly manage it,” he says. “These venues rely on public support and audience patronage to survive.

Nearly three-quarters of the 14-29-year-olds need between one and six servings of cookies, ice cream, chocolate, candy and other sweets each day, according to a new survey of 2,000 U.S. adults conducted by the market researcher Talker Research and commissioned by the Japanese candy company HI-CHEW. By comparison, just 57 percent of Baby Boomers – who are between 62 and 80 years old – said the same. The survey included 500 Gen Z respondents, 500 Gen X respondents, 500 Millennials and 500 Baby Boomers.

Can a sweet potato help your baby sleep through the night?

Can a sweet potato help your baby sleep through the night?

A study in New Zealand examined the effects of kūmara (a type of sweet potato) on infants’ sleep. Researchers found that infants who were fed standard kūmara experienced less nocturnal wakefulness. A separate group that received kūmara with added resistant starch showed a small increase in daytime sleep, but also experienced trends toward more problematic nighttime sleep. The paper was published in Nutritional Neuroscience. Kūmara is the Māori name commonly used in New Zealand for the sweet potato, a root crop scientifically known as Ipomoea batatas. It is an edible plant in the morning glory family and is grown for its swollen, starchy roots. In New Zealand, kūmara is an important food with deep historical and cultural significance for the Māori people. The Polynesian ancestors of the Māori brought kūmara to New Zealand around the 13th century as a cultivated food plant. Because New Zealand is cooler than tropical Polynesia, growing kūmara required careful agricultural techniques. Over time, kūmara became one of the most important traditional crops in Māori horticulture. Today, it is also a …
