Actors are cattle, Hitchcock once said, but he was never willing to take it to the next level and literally use food as his actors. (Though there is a great moment involving fried eggs in To Catch a Thief, among others.) You don’t have to limit yourself the way Hitch did— you can make a movie all about your favorite foods, and now’s the time to do it— because entries for the Food Film Festivals just opened up, and your single entry opens up a chance to be in both the Chicago and New York festivals this fall. Entries are accepted now through March 22; get the full details here. The Chicago edition (never mind the old logo shown here) will be November 21-23.
