Movie #3450 ........................."Nonnas" (netflix)

Movie #3450 "Nonnas" (netflix)  What a gem of a movie this is!  We saw the documentary on "Sunday Morning" about this man who opened a restaurant using his Nonna's recipes, and then hiring Nonnas to take turns in the kitchen to serve up fantastic Italian family dinners in  Staten Island.  This film follows the story --- with the biggest conflict that Staten Island is way out there and has already established places, and he tries to be the new "kid" on the block.  This is the best we've seen Vince Vaughan in a long time --- the story brings out the soft side in him, and the actresses who play the grandmothers are priceless.  Worth the watch.  We loved it! 5 out of 5.

"NONNAS"         2025     PG     1 hr and 51 minutes              Netflix

After losing his beloved mother, a man risks everything to honor her by opening an Italian restaurant with actual grandmothers as the chefs.
