food and movies
We at Slashfood absolutely love movies and food, whether it's a quiet night in with take-out and a DVD, a date night out in a restaurant followed by a movie, matching food to movies, movies about food, or talking about foods that might come up in movies.

Premiere.com also like food movies, since this year, there are at least three movies that involve it: Keri Russell in Waitress, the Pixar film Ratatouille that has every good foodie clamoring for eggplant, zucchini, and tomatoes, and No Reservations, the movie that came out this past weekend.

Ulee's Gold: Oh that sweet honey.
Lady and the Tramp: You know the scene.
Sideways: There are a few good mouthwatering moments, but the best is when Miles and Maya are on Stephanie's back porch, just TALKING about why they like wine. Mmmmmm.
The Sandlot: When Smalls learns to make smores.

Mostly Martha, though, it's worth read the
subtitles.
