Food has always been a key ingredient on the big screen, yet no book has ever been devoted to recreating the meals served in famous films. Now, film buffs - and anyone else whose mouth has watered over on-screen culinary delights - can enjoy this delectable volume that recreates meals from 16 noted films - including "Babette's Feast", "Big Night", "Chocolat", "Goodfellas", "Titanic", and "Tortilla Soup" - spanning a wide range of cuisines and cultures. Each chapter opens with a quotation that speaks about the featured meal, followed by a synopsis of the film, an analysis of the importance of and context behind the meal, and - of course - the menu and recipes. Also included in this volume are interviews, anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes insights with the actors, directors, and producers, to add that little bit of extra spice.
