Slice of America: Charred in the Florida Sun - TRAILER
Slice of America: Charred in the Florida Sun
A true fish-out-of-water story, or should we say, a pizza-out-of-Connecticut story, about a New Haven-native with a love for the town’s beloved “apizza” (pronounced: ah-beetz), who does the impossible by bringing the charred, thin-crusted, best pizza in the world to southern Florida.
In Slice of America, episode one, Charred in the Florida Sun, Jimmy Fantin opens Fantini’s “New Haven Style” Apizza in the small coastal town of Stuart, Florida. With the support of loyal Connecticut snowbirds jonesing for a slice of home, and a rave review from One Bite’s Dave Portnoy, Fantini’s thrives and becomes a hub for pizza in Florida, with pizza-lovers driving a hundred miles or more for just a taste of one of Jimmy’s pies.
Director Gorman Bechard, the filmmaker behind the documentary Pizza A Love Story (and 20 other feature-films), and host/pizza historian Colin M. Caplan lead us on this amusing journey of pizza love and perfection. You will laugh, learn about the origins of pizza, and fall in love with Jimmy’s passion. But mostly you will leave hungry, wanting to experience Fantini’s New Haven Style Apizza for yourself.

I knew 14 years ago that this dog would one day break my heart. From the first time Kristine and I saw that spotted tongue, after driving two hours in a snow storm to pick him up on December 20, 2008. He was born in Memphis. For various reasons I won’t go into here, we always felt he was a reincarnated rock star. His eyes even looked lined with eyeliner (probably a glam or emo rock star). He wa...

Matt Wallace interview from the documentary COLOR ME OBSESSED
❤
From one pizza slut to another, Fantini's is a slice of heaven
Oh man.....now I want some pizza!!! I could eat pizza every day! Wish you were closer to where I lived. I know, I know.....people drive miles and miles, and I have a nerve to complain. I am an instant gratification person!
Love the interview. BUT. Uncle Tupelo's first record is one of my favorite records ever. It's up there with the Replacements. Those are my 2 favorite bands.
Interesting and enguaging man.Great insight and interview..
Grew up there. I remember giving out water, popcorn, food at my grandma's house and riding on the buses with my dad taking the festival goers back out to the highway.
He’s mistaken about School Kids Records, it wasn’t in Columbus Ohio, it was in Ann Arbor Michigan where the University of Michigan is and the club he was most likely talking about there is The Blind Big.
That table is a nice table
The whole hippie situation was one of just complete debauchery, hedonism, and indulgence. They thought they were so cool and free but looking back today, they were really a bunch of losers who didn't want to contribute or grow up.
Left of the Dial… beautiful song and nostalgic for me .. college rock
Ive watched this (and the Tommy interview too) so many times Ive lost count, its just great! Thank you for putting this out! I love "Dont tell a soul" I think its one of their best albums. So great to hear the producer/engineers side of it, I love hearing/reading about recording as I make my own music and this is gold, Thank you mister GormanBechard!
I never liked seeing the Replacements in concert for the very reason he stated. If anyone represents the Minneapolis Sound - it is the Replacements. Each album is a gem, and Westerberg was a great song writer.
Thoroughly enjoyed this, thanks. Regarding Matt's point about playing the game, with the industry, press, even fans - my friend and I were leaving the 930 Club in DC after a great Westerberg solo show. Paul was sitting on the steps of his tour bus, talking and signing things. My friend said "want to say hi to Paul?" I passed as I knew Paul's reputation and didn't want to sully a fantastic show. For me, it's good enough to have the records and see the shows.
This gentleman is incredibly sincere and thoughtful in his interview. So great to watch and listen to this. Mats for life!
" I'm a big fan of bands sellout records for for some reason, because i feel like uh you get glimpses into people at those times that can be not good, but you can also see that you know what i know you're trying awfully hard here to break the mold. and I'm championing your cause because of this and uh the songs were still great and um, it held as much sway over me because i felt like there was a guy as a songwriter coming through here uh making way through the the bombast and the chaos of what the replacements had become." Love this. And love Don't Tell A Soul for the same reason. Just like I love Pleasant Dreams by The Ramones.
“Too dumb to realize how cool it was”. Pretty much summarizes the 1980s in Chicago for me. I saw all of these iconic ( Mats, REM, Husker Du etc) indie bands, for $5-10 a show. Fun. Wish I carried a camera, a diary and sobriety!
What's the first song the interviewer mentioned in his mixtape that he would make?
Replacements? There is no replacement.
Chicago pizza is str8 trash
Probably my favorite Replacements album after Let it be.
Perfect fan band. They never did the things that would make them popular with normal (non -music hipster) people, so fans never have to say "I used to like them, before...". (Well, they did anyway - "before Don't tell A Soul..)
Don't Tell A Souls is both their best and worst album.
I'd take Stink , too.
4:50
1:18:04
1:19:16
the book is incredible. i actually read the book before i even heard a song from the band. then they became one of my favorite bands
Watching that vid was five minutes that I will never get back in my life.
What speakers are those?
Narly. Never heard of this, I've rocketed down powder ridge many times, gorman u try friscos pizza yet?
Phillip Seymour Hoffman would have been so well suited, both in look and acting style, to play Jay in a film.
Phillip S.H. was another great talent gone too soon.
I was five miles away in Northford. One and a half at the time, but I remember all the talk about it.
excellent interview
Uncle Baby Billy I see you
This is so moving, I'm so glad I stumbled across it. And I'm so glad you turned me onto Strays Don't Sleep. Every song in "You Are Alone" haunts me to this day. A previous commenter mentioned the photos in which your reflection appears. I found those images especially moving... they make the emptiness and loss so much more visceral. This is a beautiful film. Thanks you!
Thank you for the kind words.
Thankless job lol they deserved to have a kook like Spector or Pappilardi produced their records! Dickinson was close enough...seriously what a job...
This guy is like the last guy you'd think was their road manager! Cooler heads right ? What a mess lol
I was there.
Am I the only one who thinks Let it Be is Mats best album 🤔
Wilco did a full electric gig at the virgin megastore in London, around 1999. After, they did a signing session for summerteeth..I got my vinyl cover signed by all the band. Its on my wall.
One of the worst bands I ever saw was The Replacements. Later on one of the best bands I ever saw was The Replacements.
Those tom Waitz Tracks on Dead Man’s Pop are pure gold
What the Replacements did for Dave at the Rat (I was there that night as well-incredible show) Dave's band the Neighborhoods did for me a few years prior to that. I saw them from right in front of the stage at that Rat and their raw punk/rock energy and great hooks changed my outlook on music. My UFO and Yes records gathered some dust after that night (though I've since returned to them and knocked the dust off). The Neighborhoods were power pop/punk and a GREAT live band and Dave is a tremendous songwriter. I wish he'd gotten to play one of his own songs at those shows he did with Paul but that would have been asking a bit too much.
I get what you're saying but they were there as The Replacements. Most of the people in the audience wouldn't have even known any Neighborhoods songs.
Intriguing subject ...and great tagline!
Rock and Roll Ghost, Talent Show, Achin To Be, I'll Be You, Darlin One, They're Blind, I Won't, Don't Tell A Soul contains some of Pauls best writing.The productio does sound a little dated but it is brilliant on every other level.imho.
Love that Minneapolis dork core scene
Can we get a shitz/LoudFastRules/Soul Asylum doc? Pleeez
Matt Wallace deserves a Purple Heart for working with the Mats.
I really like this guy. He’s so positive and sincere.
When I heard the album don't tell the soul I knew it was over because it was just so slick.
One of my favorite stories I ever heard about the replacements was how they came down to play Atlanta pretty early in their career and Bob got completely shit-faced drunk and passed out blocking the door of the apartment where some guy was letting the band crash. He was literally crashed out and no one could get in for an unspecified number of hours because he was too heavy and comatose.
