Review of Tampopo (1985) by Matthew H — 20 Apr 2010
Big Up's to my friend Roy for recommending this movie. Its a spoof of Western/Samurai movies with a Toaist's facination towards the perfect bowl of Ramen Noodles. The beauty of the movie is the attention to details about the noodles.
Good food comes from a detailed process that is completly lacking in most of our lives. This simple desire to help one woman make the perfect bowl of noodles become an epic quest film. The food/sex scene in this movie beats out 9 & 1/2 Weeks by a good two months! I couldn't find it on Netflix, but it was at the local library.
