Sunday evening, I had dinner at Bosphorous in Winter Park. Another yummy adventure in turkish cuisine. My dinner was a wonderful poof of lavas with hummus and haydir. I ended my meal with künefe, a delightful dessert made from shredded cracked wheat, cheese, pistachio nuts and a simple honey syrup.
This wonderful dinner was followed by a very disturbing movie - Shame. A very good movie that I did not like. It's an extremely intense movie about sexual addiction. The story centers around a brother and sister that are emotionally crippled by a shameful past and trapped by their subsequent addictions and co-dependencies. "Shame" does not allow the viewer to peek behind the curtain; instead, the audience is thrust into very intimate scenes. With unavoidable vulnerability, the actors, Michael Fassbender and Carey Mulligan, delivered tour de force performances. "Shame" is a movie worth seeing, but it's not for the faint-hearted.

I've been to that restaurant and thought it was really great. Wimped out on Shame because I didn't want to see it with a bunch of people - will sneak a look on Netflix since I've heard how well it was done. We saw A Separation this weekend at the Enzian and it was very good, not a happy movie, but one to be seen. Ann
