Have a drink, dinner, or appetizer before heading to the 2nd Annual North Carolina Jewish Film Festival. There are many performances and films, but we've picked Cup Final as it looked most intriguing to critic-extrordinaire, Dave Kaye. The film festival runs from Jan 20 - Jan 23 and includes 18 films with varying titles, including There's No Such Thing As A Chanuka Bush. Please RSVP for the consideration of the wait staff. Need info? call Dave at 858-5607 or e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Here's a short description of the 7:30 PM Screening: Cup Final. An effort to reconcile some of the differences between Israelis and Palestinians, Eran Riklis's CUP FINAL uses the cliche of a beleaguered platoon with a POW whom they eventually come to accept as a fellow pawn in the larger political struggle. The catalyst for this realization is a shared love for soccer and a devotion to the Italian national team in the World Cup match.
