#99
I believe that nothing can compare to watching a film on the big screen with an audience of complete strangers. But when you live in a small town and your big screen viewing options are limited, sometimes you have no choice but to watch a movie for the 1st time on a small screen.
That’s how I saw my pick for # 99; Tampopo
Director Juzo Itami’s 1985 comedy is a delightfully funny film about cooking, shopping, and eating. And it is all over the place, but in a good way.
Juzo, in only his 2nd film, is like a free form Jazz player who veers off into 100 amazing different directions, only to bring it back in the end. And it works.
The cast includes Tsutomu Yamazaki, Nobuko Miyamoto and Ken Watanabe.
It is available thru Netflix or Amazon so rent it or buy it, but make sure to have ample food prepared while you’re watching!
