The History of Film Flavor
Grab your popcorn, kids…
I started Film Flavor as an Instagram account years ago. Soon, I began posting about foods that appeared in film, and cross-posting on my Letterboxd. Finally, I started the Film Flavor newsletter here on Substack. I aim to make Film Flavor the premier online destination for all things food, film, and flavorful.
To me, “flavorful” encompasses the taste of foods as much as the look, feel, and aesthetic of films, television, and media.
I Want to Hear From YOU
If you’re craving a community of foodies and film junkies, epicures and cinephiles, keep reading…
From pickleball leagues to virtual reality partying, merrymaking communities with other folks on your wavelength are essential to keeping your head on straight in the modern world.
I’m here to tell you: We food-in-film lovers deserve community joy just as much as any other group of hobbyists! Sure, we enjoy spending most of our time in dimly-lit rooms where talking to others is frowned upon, but we also enjoy sharing our favorite dish recipes and film pairings with like minded individuals.
If you’re interested in creating a community, I humbly ask you to join the Film Flavor club by
Subscribing to the Film Flavor newsletter,
Replying to the super secret welcome email questions, and
Joining the conversation in post comments and on Substack notes.
