Warms the Heart

This movie touched my heart. In a world of million dollar action movies, this brought me back to the complex, yet oh so important need for family. In this case, food was the conduit. And who doesn't feel even more emotion when food is involved. Relax, give yourself a treat, and succumb to a truly meaningful slice of life.
