Taberu Onna

I gave it a perfect score for many reasons. The way food is the main actor is just the first of them. Cooking is not a selfish act but a continuous declaration of love and the director had the ability to capture this. It also captured perfectly the way the food brings people together, its energy flowing and linking people unlikely to meet and become friends of lovers except for the food. This is a movie filled with romanticism to the brim and maybe this is why its general score it is not so good. People are afraid good stories never happen for real. But in reality they happen, the same way with the food: you have to start cooking with love, as a special ingredient! And magic happens around your the same way it happens in the movie. Rating this with less than 7 stars is like eating a combini bento while thinking better food do not exist.
