This movie by far is my most favorite movie of the year. Apparently the same for the rest of the people in the theater. People laughed out loud throughout the entire movie and you left with a feeling of joy, wanting to cook and most importantly wanting to enjoy what you eat.
We Americans spend all our time worrying about what we put in our bodies that we forget to enjoy some of our choices. Food has become our enemy and the sense of time has stolen our ability to take a moment and enjoy the taste. This movie was filled with laughter, poignant moments and recognition. The acting was superb, the cultural and historical scenes reminded us of our past.
There was one scene in the movie that reminded me of my friend Julie and I who have been teaching a computer program for a month. In the movie, present day Julie was so distraught over her perceived failure that she is lying on the kitchen floor, on her back, crying and occasionally kicking her feet. I know we have felt that way but what keeps us off the floor is not only our belief in our fellow coworkers...but the germs that lurk.
