Taste celebrates its 43rd birthday this month. For the occasion, we're heading to the movies to celebrate food on film with a showing of "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" Thursday night at the Heights Theatre. The 1967 film features Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, in his last film.

Do they ever eat dinner during the movie? Who says the words that make up the movie title? Join us and find out.

And come early. Harvey Gustafson will be playing food tunes on the theater's amazing Wurlitzer organ. There will be door prizes and a cookbook raffle. Hope to see you there.
