Next up for our dinner and a movie series with a24 is the 2019 film The Florida Project. We've put together a breakfast buffet menu that includes waffles, hash browns, fluffy scrambled eggs, and ice cream for dessert!
The Florida Project“It’s like Thanksgiving in here!” marvels single mother Halley at her neighbor’s luxuries: a full-size refrigerator and a crockpot, in contrast to the mini-fridge and microwave in the tiny motel room she shares with her six-year-old daughter Moonee . In, writer/director Sean Baker creates a magical movie about childhood and community in an unlikely place—budget motels outside Disney World.
Halley spends most of her time trying to get money to pay for food and their motel room. They subsist on donated white bread, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and the occasional pizza—though they can’t afford the pepperoni that Moonee loves. Moonee and her friends run wild, and so do their imaginations. They love ice cream, and often go to Twistee Treat, “where we get free ice cream,” Moonee says. By “free,” she means that they beg strangers for change, telling creative stories to elicit sympathy. Cadging enough for one cone of vanilla, the children always share it equally.But breakfast is Moonee’s favorite meal. Twice Halley takes Moonee for a breakfast blowout she can’t afford.
Later, when things are at their darkest, Halley takes Moonee to the breakfast buffet at a nearby upscale hotel. Moonee runs the length of it, ecstatic at the piles of pastries and mountains of fruit. This is a dream come true for Moonee, who wishes that she had a bigger stomach, and that even the forks could be made out of candy. Halley doesn’t eat. She just looks lovingly at Moonee, a child who makes her own magic.
