Das Bankett des Kaisers

This is a movie that brings you back to what Hong Kong silver age of movies. Next to God of Cookery this is a classic. Hard for me to track down this movie since it aired on national tv and it is a beloved even by me a non chinese and non chinese speaking background. Trops that you see in cooking dramas and even cooking style anime is here to please the fans. Amidst all of the when i am older watching this movie what it is ismore than a cooking competition show . It is in its core a story of heart and love for the things that you do and the one that you love. Even if the subtitle is noy great im sure since meaning is always lost in translation, a qoute from the movie, "for you, it will all be for you" still left me crying.
