Description

The tale of an eccentric band of culinary ronin who guide the widow of a noodle shop owner on her quest for the perfect recipe, this rapturous “ramen western” by Japanese director Juzo Itami is an entertaining, genre-bending adventure underpinned by a deft satire of the way social conventions distort the most natural of human urges, our appetites. Interspersing the efforts of Tampopo (Nobuko Miyamoto) and friends to make her café a success with the erotic exploits of a gastronome gangster and glimpses of food culture both high and low, the sweet, sexy, and surreal Tampopo is a lavishly inclusive paean to the sensual joys of nourishment, and one of the most mouthwatering examples of food on film ever made.

    Schon etliche Jahre her seit ich diesen Streifen gesehen habe. Aber nun nach meiner kürzlichen Japanreise ist mir dieser Film wieder eingefallen. Habe ihn in guter Erinnerung.

    Eine Liebeserklärung an das Essen! Und das ist mit sehr viel Humor gelungen. Zeigt aber auch die erotische Seite in Verbindung mit Kulinarischem. Für mich ein Klassiker.

    so viel philosophie, humor, essen und liebe in einem film!
    hier kann man/frau seine sorgen vergessen und natürlich etwas über nudelsuppe lernen.
    ein feelgood-movie dass aber alle qualitäten eines kultfilmes in sich hat.
    weiterempfehlen anschauen und wiederanschauen!!!!!!
