Yup, it’s perennial Travel Month at PX This. Hooray! But now it’s time to lighten it up just a bit around here, since I’m sure the last few film recommendations completely swept you up and away and had you sobbing and weeping like a pitiful little bitch. Have no fear— some laughter, hilarity and gaiety […]

In keeping with this month’s “Travel Series” @ PX This, for my next recommendation, I would like to heartily suggest the beautiful and critically acclaimed film (and one of my personal favorites), Water.   Seeing as you’re stuck here in the big city while we incessantly shove gorgeous images of exotic locales down your petulant […]

Vatel …

September 22nd, 2009
vatel_03

OK, so I promised at some point I would go back to recommending movies with F&B related themes. Certainly, no F&B film appreciation repertoire is complete without three of the best movies ever made about food and/or wine— Vatel, Eat Drink Man Woman, and the more recently released, Bottle Shock.   Visually stunning, viscerally moving, […]

Just watch it. If you like good compelling stories, and don’t mind the subtitles (what kind of illiterate jackass actually minds subtitles?), Just Another Love Story will have you on the edge of your seat, chewing your fingers off.   Later I may go back to recommending good movies with food and/or wine and/or other […]

How to Get Married & Stay Single

September 10th, 2009

OK, it doesn’t really have anything to do with restaurants, dining or food. But it’s French! Therefore, in a way, it kind of does (but not really). Also it stars a couple of PXes, so there. Whatever, get over it. It’s hilarious, entertaining and a welcome departure from Hollywood’s latest typically mindless blockbusters. If the […]

Gosford Park

August 29th, 2009
gosford_poster

So how long has it been since you saw Gosford Park? A pretty long time, I’d wager. Well, it’s about time you saw it again. Honestly, how much of it do you remember? You probably don’t even remember whodunit, do you? And did you even remember Clive Owen? And a (youngish!) Helen Mirren? What about […]

Dinner Rush by Bob Giraldi

August 11th, 2009

  It’s about time you watched Dinner Rush again. Remember Dinner Rush? Dinner Rush is arguably one of the best films ever made about the restaurant industry. And do you know why? Because it was produced by restaurateurs / "industry veterans" Phil Suarez and Bob Giraldi (Giraldi directed, as well). As a matter of fact, […]
