| First off, I've only seen the Region1 MGM DVD version. Apart from that, moviewise, this is a nice little movie. It's not heavy on the drama nor is it heavy on comedy-but it has both. It's the type of film to see at night or on a rainy day. But it isn't boring. The story in a nutshell: a widower who is a famous chef has three young daughters who are dealing with the men and relationships in their lives. They are also dealing with their fellings for dad-who has lost all sensation in his taste buds and feels that his life isn't as meaningful anymore. He's not suicidal,but he does feel that he's just going through the motions of living day to day. It's not a dreary movie. It's a nice little film. The star of the film isn't the actors, it's the food onscreen that really makes your mouth water! The food is used as an analogy for what is going on in the lives of this family. This is not a highbrow film nor is it a broad slapstick type of movie. It's a nice little indie film that deserves to be discovered again. |
