Nonnas a tasty tribute to tradition You'd be well served to have a pot of spaghetti, a pan of lasagna or a tray of cannoli close at hand while watching Stephen Chbosky’s Nonnas, a tribute to Italian food, family and tradition.

"People aren't – as I talk to working families across Illinois – they're not looking for people to just talk.
