Le Marche: The Secret of Santa Vittoria

Food and entertainment are great diversions.  On occasion, it is good to get lost in an old movie especially when it tells the story of man’s past struggles and creative solutions to catastrophic situations.

The Secret Life of Santa Vittoria, a delightful classic Italian-American film by famed director, Stanley Kramer, is based on a true story of resolve, courage, community spirit, and…one million bottles of wine!  It is set in Italy’s beautiful Le Marche region, the backdrop for this week’s authentic late August dinner.

Pick up freshly-made dinner from Le Marche, get comfy at home by the TV, open your bottle of red wine from Le Marche (so you can cheer with the protagonist as he saves the same wine from the Nazis!), pull up “Secret of Santa Vittoria” on Prime Video here, and have a gastro-visual delight that will transport you through time and space to the beautiful Marche region of Italy!
