Old Fashioned: The Story of the Wisconsin Supper Club is a cozy dive into a fading culinary tradition that feels both nostalgic and bittersweet. Director Holly L. De Ruyter captures the essence of these supper clubs with a gentle pacing, showcasing their charm and the communal spirit they fostered. The interviews with longtime patrons and owners feel like warm conversations, revealing personal stories woven into the fabric of these establishments. The atmosphere is rich with reminiscence, and the visuals—shots of hearty meals, cocktail preparations, and intimate gatherings—bring you into the heart of this unique dining culture. There’s a distinct feeling of loss as the documentary reflects on the evolution of American dining, making you ponder what we gain and what we lose over time.
