Food+Movies

Movies that make your mouth water and your mind wonder!

The movie What's Cooking goes along perfectly with international foods. The movie is about four families from very different cultures (one Jewish, one Hispanic, one African American and one Vietnamese) who are preparing a Thanksgiving meal. None of the meals turns out the same, which is important to know that every culture does things a little differently! What's Cooking is a movie that turns food into a witty exploration of culture as everyone prepares their turkeys in entertainingly different ways.

//The Meaning of Food// is a PBS home video that is worth sharing! There are so many cultural and religious celebrations that are centered around food. The video shows rich and varied history of dining that has guests sitting at the table who are from across the globe. These guests share their opinions and experiences informed by their own cultural expectations. This is a great documentary that leaves the viewers hungry for more.
