Indy Picks The Oscar Nominees

The Independent has proven to be one of the top prognosticators in the country when it comes to predicting Academy Award nominations.

In fact, our accuracy spans 20 years, when Ben Keningsberg, then a student at Springs School, became our film critic. His column, “The Good, The Bad, The Ugly” ran for a decade in The Independent.

Keningsberg is now a professional film critic whose work appears in Time Out Chicago, The New York Times, and Rotten Tomatoes.

Indy’s current film critic, Miles X. Logan (“The Reel Deal”) and fellow movie buff/Indy reporter Emily Toy make their choices. The nominations will be announced tomorrow morning at 9.

considerable support. We’re going to guess Michael B. Jordan (Creed) beats out Michael Caine and Matt Damon for the fifth spot on the ballot.

Toy: Be still, my heart! Dare I say my beloved Leo will finally get his longawaited (and long overdue) Oscar?

Redmayne, offering a razor-sharp performance in Danish Girl, is a lock to be nominated, as are Steve Carell (The Big Short), Fassbender (Steve Jobs), and Will Smith (Concussion).

Best Actress

Logan: It’s Brie Larson’s to lose for a wondrous performance in Room.

Saoirse Ronan (Brooklyn), Rooney Mara, if she is submitted in this category for (Carol), and Charlotte Rampling (45 Years) have a leg up. We’re hoping Lily Tomlin (Grandma) gets a nod but it might well go to Maggie Smith (The Lady In The Van).

Toy: Would love to see veteran character actor Tomlin get a nod, as

well as Dame Maggie Smith, and most likely they will. Blanchett will most likely get a nod, but I’m guessing (and hoping) it will go to her Carol counterpoint Mara. I’m thinking the race will come down to Mara, Larson, and personal favorite, Ronan.

Best Supporting Actor

Logan: A wide-open field featuring familiar names and some obscure

CONTINUED ON PAGE C-11.

Best Movie

Logan: This is the strongest field in years, with only a few sure things: Spotlight, Covenant and Carol should make the cut. The Big Short, Room, The Martian, Creed, Brooklyn, Bridge Of Spies, and Danish Girl also have considerable support. The big question will be if the Academy rewards Star Wars: The Force Awakens for its huge box office showing or chooses Straight Out Of Compton to appease black leaders who felt the Academy ignored black performers last year. Mad Max Fury Road is coming on quickly and may have momentum.

Toy: The Academy tends to favor period pieces, especially those with strong female leads. Carol will most likely be the front-running contender, with Room, The Danish Girl, The Martian, and Spotlight rounding out the rest of the category. Would personally love to see Mad Max: Fury Road get a nom, because it was, in fact, the best cinematic joy ride of the year.

631-289-9899

Best Director

Logan: The old adage that the director of the Best Movie is usually rewarded has been skewed now that the Best Movie field has been expanded. Nevertheless Thomas McCarthy (Spotlight) remains the favorite. We’re betting Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu (The Revenant), Academy favorite Ridley Scott (The Martian) Todd Haynes (Carol) and Tom Hooper (The Danish Girl) also make the cut.

Toy: Coming off the momentum of Birdman, Inarritu will get the nod and old pro Ridley Scott is a shoo-in, but the real race is between McCarthy and Haynes.

Best Actor

Logan: Leo DiCaprio (The Revenant) and Eddie Redmayne (Danish Girl), last year’s winner, are locks.

Michael Fassbender (Steve Jobs) and Bryan Cranston (Trumbo) both have

The Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation And The Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Foundation

T h e S a m u e l Wa x m a n C a n c e r Research Foundation and the TripleNegative Breast Cancer Foundation have announced their partnership in a twoyear grant in the amount of $400,000 to scientists collaborating on research to produce less-toxic treatments that target cancer stem cells to minimize recurrence of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer and identify early detection and treatment of Dr. Samuel Waxman and Hayley pregnancy-associated TNBC. “We are delighted to partner again Dinerman, Executive Director of TNBCF. with the Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Foundation,” said Samuel Waxman, M.D., founder and CEO of the SWCRF. “Our combined strengths in research and advocacy greatly enhance the pace of our common goals to develop more effective, less-toxic treatments for women living with TNBC and to someday find a cure.”

The SWCRF and the TNBCF will each contribute $100,000 per year over a two-year period beginning January 2016. The funds will be allocated to researchers working on two TNBC investigations. Drs. Gary Nolan, of Stanford University, and Ming-Ming Zhou and Samuel Waxman, of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai are collaborating on research applying a combination of a minimally toxic derivative of Vitamin A with specific molecular inhibitors to reprogram TNBC cells in mice with the goal of testing the therapy in clinical trials. The researchers’ project incorporates findings pertinent to cancer metastasis from research by Dr. Robert A. Weinberg of the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research in the areas of cancer stem cells and Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition.

The second project funded by the grant is led by Doris Germain, Ph.D., whose work at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai aims to enhance early detection and treatment of TNBC tumors that emerge among women more often within one to six years of giving birth. Dr. Germain’s research targets a plasma protein that promotes the growth of TNBC cells upon being activated during the shrinkage of women’s mammary glands after they stop breastfeeding. Pending further mice model studies, the project intends to test milk samples of expectant mothers to identify high-risk candidates for TNBC and to screen for potential treatments of triple-negative, pregnancy-associated breast cancer.

Triple-Negative Breast Cancer is a particularly aggressive subtype of breast cancer characterized by tumors that lack three receptors known to fuel most breast cancers: estrogen, progesterone and HER-2. As a result, commonly used breast cancer treatments that target these receptors, such as Tamoxifen, are ineffective in treating TNBC so the need for alternative therapies is great.

TNBC has a high incidence of recurrence, accounts for 20 percent of all breast cancer cases and disproportionately affects African-Americans, Latinas, Ashkenazi women and women with the BRCA1 gene.

East End Calendar Highlights

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22) You need to go on without a clear picture of where you are, where you are going or where you have been. You do not have to fear the unknown. With intuition and faith in yourself and benevolent forces you can succeed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20) Satisfaction will be the reward of consistent effort with a partner. Do not try to do the job all by yourself. Though obstacles may stand in the way, work shared is work halved. Shared burdens are lighter; a friend or a fellow worker will be helpful.

Warm Up This Winter At Wölffer Kitchen

By Emily Toy

About a week ago my sister and I ate at Wölffer Kitchen in our hometown Sag Harbor, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised after having a lukewarm dining experience earlier last fall.

The locale is the first winery-owned restaurant in the Hamptons, and for the most part, it’s a winner.

The dinner was a bit impromptu, with a cocktail becoming much more upon arrival at the brightly-light, clean looking restaurant. Differing in ambiance from the previous dark wood and dark lighting, the aesthetic at Wölffer Kitchen is a funky, and colorful oasis, unlike most other eateries here on the East End. The bar tender was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in describing his libation menu, as cocktails turned into us ordering a bottle: Fatalis Fatum, a merlot, cabernet blend. It was perfectly balanced, truly one of the best Wölffer Vineyard has to offer, and was perfect for the food.

The good (bar/drink wise): It’s comfy, cool, clean, and the drink menu includes something for everyone: classic cocktails with a few modern, zingy alterations. Also be sure to check out their bar menu, which resembles food offered at the winery, for some simple and quick good eats.

The bad: The wine list itself. With Fatalis Fatum being some of the best on the list, it ain’t cheap ($23 a glass, over $100 for a bottle). The wine list is lacking, with, you guessed it, Wölffer wines taking up most of it.

A few other offerings from North Fork vineyards, and some obscure, unrelatable wines round out the rest of the underwhelming list.

Now, that being said, let’s talk about the good stuff and that’s the food.

With veteran Hamptons chef Brian Cheewing at the helm, the food at Wölffer Kitchen is classic, tasty, wellpriced and sure to promote happy tummies.

We started with a Buffalo mozzarella and beet salad with poached pears, fennel micro basil and an aged balsamic. The cheese was generously portioned, the beets and pear cooked perfectly: still slightly firm, anything but mushy, and the fennel microgreens counteracted the sweetness from the

balsamic perfectly.

Next we opted for one of the additions of the evening: a beautiful tuna tartare with capers and separated egg, along with crostini with cracked black pepper, a nice touch I must say.

Gorgeous color, super fresh; a true testament to Cheewing’s constant and reliable efforts in providing quality seafood. If seafood is on the menu, don’t hesitate. It’ll be fresh, I promise.

For entrees, be sure to check out the braised short rib with polenta and sautéed broccoli rabe. Fork tender and the perfect winter dish. Risotto with wild mushrooms, spinach and black truffle butter was another winner as was the veal osso buco with saffron rice and sautéed greens. Don’t miss the butternut squash ravioli in a sage

E

lemoncello brown butter and, like I said, anything seafood.

Wölffer Kitchen is located at 29 Main Street in Sag Harbor and is open six days a week (closed Mondays).

Dinner is served from 5:30 to 10:30 PM, with a brunch menu offered on Sundays. Call 631-725-0101 for reservations and more information.

Montauk Fishburger Project

high quality servings of healthy, local protein to a larger sector of the local population than ever before.”

Judiann Carmack-Fayyaz, Environmental Design Teacher and co-founder of the Bridgehampton Edible School Garden program, and Jason Weiner, chef owner at Almond Restaurants, worked closely with Sam McCleland, chef and owner of The Bell and Anchor in Sag Harbor, to create special signature sauces for the students after sourcing a range of local toppings for the Montauk Fishburger Project from participating organic farming operations, Amber Waves Farm and Quail Hill Farm in Amagansett.

Small-scale production of the fishburgers is currently being conducted by the Dock to Dish Community S u ppor ted Fi sh er y program of Montauk, with artisanal bun baking for the project being spearheaded by baker Carissa Waechter, at The Amagansett Food Institute’s South Fork Kitchen on the campus of Stony Brook University in Southampton. Pilotprogram launch and distribution is scheduled to begin at Bridghampton High School on Friday, January 22.

We’re going to pass on him.

Mark Rylance (Bridge of Spies), Idris Elba (Beast of No Nation), Michael Keaton and Mark Ruffalo (Spotlight) and Benicio Del Toro (Sicario) are our choices.

Toy: Del Toro and Stallone will (and should) get their respective nominations, as will Academy darkhouse Michael Shannon (99 Homes) and Elba. Rylance is the favorite here, though I’d personally

Logan: Mara or Cate Blanchett (Carol), and Alicia Vikander (The Danish Girl or Ex Machina), are in. Kate Winslet (Jobs) deserves a nod. Kristen Stewart (Clouds Of Sils Maria), Helen Mirrin (Trumbo) and Joan Allen (Room) will compete for the remaining two spots.

Toy: Ditto. Winslet and Vikander are no-brainers. Jennifer Jason Leigh (The Hateful Eight) may edge out Stewart and Mirren. Don’t rule out Mara and Blanchett going head to head if neither grabs a Best Actress nod.

Islands.

Program founder, Nick & Toni’s Chef Joseph Realmuto said “We are in the middle of a movement to bring back our long lost farming and fishing culture here on the East End. Two things that have stood in the way of returning local seafood to our households and school system hasve been the amount of labor that goes into preparing fish dishes, along with a resistance from younger people to try foods that they are unfamiliar with.

"The Montauk Fishburger Project finally solves those problems. We can create them with a relatively low amount of labor and, more importantly, the fishburgers are delicious. In the end, good taste and flavor are absolutely mandatory requirements to successfully convincing students not only to try, but to actually like, and to continue eating healthy dishes.”

Realmuto’s comments on the launch were echoed by fellow initiative founders Stefanie Sacks, a culinary nutritionist and Montauk-based radio host and author of the popular local food advocacy book What The Fork Are You Eating; and Bonnie Brady, Executive Director of the Long Island Commercial Fishing Association.

“Reconnecting our local school systems with steady, reliable access to the incredibly robust bounty of nutrient-dense wild seafood being landed right here in New York’s largest fishing port has been a goal of East End communities for many decades. The hardest part was that we first had to figure out a way to turn what was local and abundant and most nutritious, into something the students would find to be totally delicious. The chefs have now solved that problem, in a big way, and the Montauk Fishburger Project has suddenly opened the door to a new

An alliance of established chefs from multiple East End restaurants have announced a unique initiative, The Montauk Fishburger Project. The project is designed to reconnect local elementary and high school students to an increasingly abundant nutritional resource that is being responsibly harvested from the waters off of eastern Long Island.

The unified group of culinary leaders are all founding members of Dock to Dish, the first restaurant supported fishery program in the country, and have now created a first-of-its-kind partnership with The Long Island Commercial Fishing Association and the Bridgehampton Edible School Garden program. The new effort aims to make wild, sustainable, traceable local seafood accessible to area youth using the novel fishburger format.

Dubbed The Montauk Fishburger Project by the program founders, the pilot program launch will include distribution to more than 250 students in the Bridgehampton school system this month.

The prototype fishburger, which utilizes only local species of wild finfish that are rated sustainable by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, was designed using an adaptation of a recipe provided by chef Eric Ripert of Le Bernardin. It will be served to students on buns created using sustainable bread designed by visionary chef and author, Dan Barber, of Blue Hill Restaurants. The bread utilizes organic flour from indigenous strains of wheat that were grown and harvested locally at Amber Waves Farm in Amagansett.

The fishburger will also include aquacultured kelp from the Long Island Sound, grown and harvested by ocean farmer Bren Smith in the Thimble

model that we envision will become commonplace throughout school systems across the state in the coming years,” said Sacks.

According to Brady, “In the U.S. marketplace over ninety percent of seafood is imported and more than half of it is farmed seafood, mostly from Asia. It is imperative to allow our remaining commercial fishermen here to return to their historical and critically important role as providers of locally landed seafood to New York State residents. In this program we are honoring a local tradition and preserving our connections to surrounding communities.

"By having the chefs collaborate and create the fishburger format using our local catch, we have combined the best of both the culinary and the commercial fishing worlds. For serving students, the chefs were very smart to use a familiar food item like the burger, which we expect will be a big hit with the kids. This enables us to now provide
