Brother to Brother Keith O’Brien, featured on the

cover of the October 21 edition of The Independent, went in for his kidney transplant last week and was home on Friday.

Locally, a fundraiser will be held at the Talkhouse in Amagansett on Wednesday, December 9, from 6 to 9 PM. A $20 donation at the door includes appetizers, a 50/50 raffle, Chinese auction and music by Phoenix Chapter, Michael Rusinsky, and The Dog Watchers.

By Jessica MackinThe 8th annual Hamptons Take 2

Documentary Film Festival kicks off tomorrow and runs through Sunday at the Bay Street Theater and Arts Center in Sag Harbor, with Q&As after every film and an Audience Award sponsored by Brown Harris Stevens.

HT2FF founder and executive director Jacqui Lofaro, of Bridgehampton, a documentary filmmaker herself, explained that “This is our eighth year as a film festival dedicated to the art of the documentary genre. Our mantra is ‘All Docs All Day.’ We run nearly 30 films at the December festival in addition to seasonal screenings throughout the year. If there’s a theme in my career, it’s being part of building and growing something to enhance the experience for our dedicated audiences.”

The festival opens on Thursday at 8 PM with A Ballerina’s Tale, directed by Nelson George, who will be attending for the Q&A. The highly-acclaimed documentary examines African-American ballerina Misty Copeland’s prodigious rise, her potentially career-ending injury, and themes of race and

body image in the classical ballet world.

The festival closes on Sunday with Since: The Bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 by director Phil Furey. The film recounts the bitter fight for the truth waged by the 270 victims’ families after Pan Am flight 103, bound for JFK Airport, went down over Lockerbie, Scotland, in December 1988, bombed by Libyan terrorists who escaped punishment for their horrific crime.

Serving as creative director for the festival is Karen Arikian and the presenting sponsor is Bridgehampton National Bank. Emceeing the Q&As are spirited broadcast personality and drama director Bonnie Grice and arts writer/actor/director Andrew Botsford.

For a full schedule and more information visit www.HT2FF.com or www.baystreet.org.

new to theaters Janis: Little Girl Blue (NR) You’ve

heard about the legend, but seeing and hearing her before booze and drugs ruined her life is something to behold. Amy Berg’s documentary illustrates what all the commotion was about – a female rock superstar like no other before her.

coming soon The Lady In The Van (PG-13) It

seems the industry is trying very hard to get Maggie Smith one more leading lady Oscar, and the grande dame might have found the perfect vehicle here. Smith turns in an astounding performance – the fact that it’s based on a true story adds to the depth of her effort.

Trainwreck America’s hottest young comedian, Amy Schumer, gets her star vehicle courtesy of producer Judd Apatow and with SNL alumni Colin Quinn and Bill Hader in tow. Schumer wrote the script and has given the cast enough one-liners to fill a “Comedy Central” skit. Unfortunately, it’s a movie, and it runs out of steam quickly. It just isn’t that funny – sorry, girls.

Creed (PG-13) Long before Rocky became a caricature of himself Sylvester Stallone’s original screenplay was good enough for Oscar consideration. Oddly, though Creed is named after a character (Apollo Creed) from one of the Rocky movies, and because Stallone co-stars, people tend to think of this film as Rocky VII. Instead, Ryan Coogler, the director and co-writer, has created another vehicle for Michael B. Jordan the brilliant star of their first endeavor, Fruitvale Station.

Jordan, in the upper echelon of the new breed of Hollywood talents, delivers an amazing performance, and Stallone, for the first time in years, shows his acting chops as well.

Fans of Rocky won’t be disappointed, although this is the first one that Stallone hasn’t had a hand in writing. This film packs a deeper emotional wallop thanks to Jordan.

Carol (R) This adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s seminal novel The Price of Salt starring Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara is an early contender for multiple Oscar nominations.

The story follows two women from very different backgrounds who find themselves in an unexpected love affair in 1950s New York. As conventional norms of the time challenge their undeniable attraction, an honest story emerges to reveal the resilience of the heart in the face of change. Academy Award nominee Todd Haynes directs.

aries (Mar. 20 - Apr. 20) You need to realize that fears, if not confronted and understood, can lead to obsessions. In order to free yourself, your dark thoughts must be met, identified, and fought. Avoid being a martyr. Get enough sleep.

taurus (Apr. 20 - May 21 You need to ceremoniously acknowledge and celebrate the completion of an important course of action. Give thanks for the support, friendship, and good things in your life. Enjoy mutual support with another. Feel complete.

gemini (May 21 - June 22) You need to be independent. Empathy may distract you. Think with your head, not with your heart. Devote your full attention and concentration to your situation or the volume of information will overwhelm. Tell it like it is.

cancer (June 22 - July 23) You need to take a break from your usual way of thinking, seeing, and doing to consider alternative ideas and viewpoints. Rest and relaxation are important now. Be diplomatic. Compromise or let things stand as they are.

leo (July 23 - Aug. 23) You need to get in touch with pain and sorrow. Denying that they exist leads to hostility. Recovery can occur. It takes faith, self-love, forgiveness, and time. Count your blessings. This is one lesson in a life of learning.

virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23) You need to be more aware of the sacrifices that are or will become involved in your present situation. You may need to seek a cause more worthy of your efforts. You need be around nurturing, healing people.

liBra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 23) You are sensing that you need to experience giving and receiving unconditional love. Give and accept love on a new level. Open your heart and let emotions move you. Your loving ways will magnetize love to you.

scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22) You may be experiencing feelings of hurt. Remember your purpose as a soul

traveling onward in knowledge born of experience. Give yourself the love you have been giving another and your sorrow will be conquered.

sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) Your labors have not only created a strong foundation, but the hard work done to meet your obligations and the effort required to produce your very best lately have resulted in a welcome and thankful celebration.

capricorn (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20) The giving of love creates more than its measure of love in return. There is a new opportunity coming into your life to experience the most positive emotions. Joy, health, and happiness are being offered to you.

aQuarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 19) There must now be a retreat from upsetting emotional involvement. Excessive concentration on others, or on pursuits that primarily benefit others, has left you somewhat unfulfilled. You have given away too much of yourself.

pisces (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20) Use your ideas and insights to establish your power. The sheer volume of information necessary to be considered now may be something of a burden. Solitude is necessary to devote your full concentration to the matter at hand.

NOTE: If you were born at the end or beginning of a sign, also read the sign before or after your birthday.

Today’s Birthday: Britney Spears, 1981

Oops! It’s her birthday . . . again. The former teen queen hit the big time with her very first album, . . . Baby One More Time, when she was barely 18.

To say stardom was in her future was an understatement – frequently onstage and a TV actor as a child growing up in Louisiana, Spears insisted her mother take her to audition for the revamped “Mickey Mouse Show.”

Crushed when she didn’t land a role, Spears persuaded her mother to move to New York where the child was enrolled in a performing arts school. It paid off big time. After hearing her sing, Jive records signed her. She was just 16.

Baby sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, and the follow-up, Oops I Did It Again, was an even bigger hit.

As typically happens, the young lady could not handle the fame. A much publicized marriage to Kevin Federline quickly turned into tabloid fodder, and Spears was perceived as being too much of a party girl to care for their two sons.

Like many a pop diva, though, Spears prevailed – she sold more albums in the first 10 years of the new century than any other female artist in the world.

No one has ever questioned her chops – her three-plus octave range, propelled by a powerful, husky voice, can fill the biggest of venues.

Spears influenced a generation of artists like Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Fergie, and is currently working on a new album and planning a comeback tour.

and season to your liking with salt and black pepper. Each piece of chicken will be breaded by first dusting the chicken with the all purpose flour.

After shaking off any excess flour, dip the chicken in the egg wash and let any excess drip off. Coat generously with the rice and bread crumb mixture.

Once you have breaded all the chicken take a look at the sweet potatoes, at this point the potatoes in the pan can be molded into a disk shape using a rubber spatula. Once you have done this, sprinkle with another dusting of sugar and return to the oven for another 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, spread the chicken strips out evenly on a sheet tray, drizzle

with the remaining olive oil and put them in the oven to bake for 20 minutes with the potatoes.

While this is happening you can make your peanut sauce by combining the chicken stock, peanut butter, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a small sauce pot and heating it gently over a low flame.

When the chicken and potatoes are done, remove them from the oven. Cut the potato cake into four to serve.

Plate the chicken, potato and arugula. Squeeze the lime juice into your peanut sauce at the last minute. Drizzle the peanut sauce over the chicken and arugula. Enjoy.
