Hi Jessica, Thanks for recommending that "A Chinese Feast", it's one of my family's favorites. We adore the scene w/ the big Garoupa. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chinese_Feast If you liked that one, you might also enjoy Stephen Chow's "The God of Cookery" - which also has a cooking show-down http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_of_Cookery There's a also food motif in the love interest in his "Shaolin Soccer", the duogh scene http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6DYOXkdwp4&feature=related Zhang Yimou's "A Simple Noodle Story" ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Simple_Noodle_Story - a remake of Blood Simple, but set in a noodle shop in China's Far West during the Qing (?). I remember it has a nice dough making scene, but that was about. Regards, Victoria Caplan Media Resources & Microforms HKUST Library Hong Kong University of Science & Technology > This one is not well known but totally brilliant, A CHINESE FEAST by > Tsu Hark. It ends withsort of a cook off to the death between the good chef and the bad chef, basically like Samurai film with food. An earlier scene involving a petty criminal who becomes a chef to be with girlfriend and ends up wrestling a giant fish in the kitchen makes me laugh just thinking of it. > > Never understood why it is not a cult classic. > > On Thu, Nov 3, 2011 at 5:54 PM, Brigid Duffy <bdu...@sfsu.edu> wrote: >> The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972) Guess Who's Coming to >> Dinner (1967) The Man Who Came to Dinner (1942) Soul Food (1997) >> Brigid Duffy Academic Technology San Francisco State University San >> Francisco, CA 94132-4200 >> E-mail: bdu...@sfsu.edu >> On Nov 3, 2011, at 2:17 PM, Chris McNevins wrote: >> Not my fave but it does deal with food…EAT, PRAY, LOVE How about MY >> DINNER WITH ANDRE? >> ________________________________________ >> Chris McNevins | ACQUISITIONS COORDINATOR UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT | >> HOMER BABBIDGE LIBRARY >> 369 Fairfield Way Unit 2005AM | Storrs, CT 06269-2005 USA >> PH: 860-486-3842 | FX: 860-486-6493 | EMAIL: chris.mcnev...@uconn.edu ________________________________________ >> From: videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu >> [mailto:videolib-boun...@lists.berkeley.edu] On Behalf OfBall, James (jmb4aw) >> Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2011 2:56 PM >> To: videolib@lists.berkeley.edu >> Subject: [Videolib] Friday fun question, early... >> Here I go again… >> For November we like to feature videos that have something to do with food, >> eating, gathering, etc. A few example are Babette’s Feast, Eat Drink Man >> Woman, Home for the Holidays, and What’s Cooking?.
