Director Stephen Chbosky (who struggled to find an audience for his last release, “Dear Evan Hansen”) and screenwriter Liz Maccie take on the “based on a true story” ways of “Nonnas,” which is an Italian word for grandmother. It’s a tale of a middle-aged man taking a chance on a restaurant idea that’s meant to preserve the cooking traditions of his family, sharing the warmth of such gatherings and food with the public. It’s a reality for restaurateur Jody Scaravella, and Vince Vaughn receives a chance to restore some of his screen charms in the part, portraying a man taking on a tremendous financial and culinary challenge while trying to mend his broken heart. Chbosky and Maccie are in crowd-pleasing mode with “Nonnas,” and they prepare a familiar dramatic feast of problems and neat resolutions, but it’s hard to resist the spirit of the feature, which makes plenty of room for its actors and their unique screen appeal.
