Food, Protest, Cowboy Boots

Studio 360

We visit the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico, where art and culture intertwine with the protest against the U.S. Navy. And Kurt Andersen and humorist and food writer Calvin Trillin sink their teeth into the the tantalizing pastry paintings of Wayne Thiebaud, talk with People Magazine film critic Leah Rozen about the culinary subplots and sensual metaphors of food in film, and take a trip down the produce aisle with vegetable sculptor and children’s book author Saxton Freymann.
