a new favorite!

‘Eat Drink Man Woman’ was a great film about family, food, love, and life. It was a visually stunning film to watch. It presents a different kind of love represented by food: the food itself is detailed and beautifully depicted. This attention to detail is then echoed by the gestures of love throughout the film. Though food is a universal topic, Eat Drink Man Woman emphasizes the Chinese concept of food as social function, the central place it holds in the formation and maintenance of relationships. In a family that has increasingly less in common with each other, the weekly dinner is a place to come together, and for Mr. Chu to reassert his role as head of the family. This was a great watch, and I surely would recommend!
