    I made this video because of Joel Haver’s Letterboxd review for Tampopo. You’ll notice that his review is extremely similar to the intro of my video. Huge thanks to Joel for inspiring me to make the vid and providing the structure of the video: letterboxd.com/joelhaver/film...

    Food stylists are so interesting. I really enjoy learning all the tricks and considerations they need to adapt to for the various needs of their client. Whether it's an ad for fast food or a lush banquet on the big screen.

      I will reupload the video except it'll be a seamless four hour cut of the egg scene. Put lofi beats in the background. Call it: Lo-Fry Beats to Yolk Swap/Relax to. Watch the algorithm explode.

    @newhorizon4066 6 місяців тому

    The Gangster and his girlfriend sequence, chopped up and scattered throughout the film, but basically book ending it, is a masterful evocation of "your life flashing by like a movie, as you lie dying..." The character himself tells you right off the bat, but I don't think anyone notices ( this was years before "The 6th Sense.") Death/decay lurks throughout this movie.

    To me, food on screen always looks gross. Everytime I see food in a commercial, movie or anywhere else on screen, it makes me feel nauseated. Ratatouille is probably the only food movie I can watch, or maybe Willy Wonka because it's all so fake and fantastical.

    • @AlexBoucher
      @AlexBoucher  Рік тому +2

      Imo the tastiest looking on-screen food is the food in Studio Ghibli movies so I get it. Animated food looks tastier than real food in real life.
