French Roast

She is a wonderful hostess to a lovely restaurant.

Greets you by name and knows your drinks and favorite food. We go there often and she makes our.visit seamless. The food is great and the drinks are excellent. It is our favorite local place for breakfast and dinner.i highly recommend going there. My favorite dish is the coq au vin. My husband loves the avocado eggs.. I love the ambience and relaxed atmosphere. We will enjoy going to this place for a long time. Can't wait to relax again in my favorite west side restaurant. French Roast is a true Parisian bistro in the old fashioned sense. Try it!

an ordinary embarrassing situation. a not reasonable solution. and the end. the psychological problem, who could reflect the case of each of us is the essence of the force of this so simple animation. and the emotion of the last part. because "French Roast" is more an answer than a show. to an if who is far to be eccentric. to the risk to lose the respect and the high reputation because a stupid error. result - an admirable short film.impeccable for each detail.

This is the third straight year that I have gone to the local theater to view the Oscar-nominated animated shorts. And, like the past two years, I am going to make my predictions about the winner in this category. I would say, however, my record isn't great when it comes to the animated films--I seem to be better at picking the live action shorts instead. However, I don't think I'm stepping out on a limb at all to say that it's highly unlikely FRENCH ROAST will take the top prize. This isn't to say that it's a bad film--it isn't bad at all and I definitely enjoyed it. It's just that there were a few that really stood out much more and seemed to be THE films to beat--in particular, THE LADY AND THE REAPER and LOGORAMA.

I seemed to enjoy this film more than my daughter (who I took with me to see them). She said it was "easy to forget" but I appreciated much of it. The CG animation was very nice as was the character design.

As for the story, though slight, it made me laugh and was enjoyable from start to finish. It starts by showing a very dirty hobo walking the streets with a cloud of bugs following him. Inside the nearby café, a snooty looking guy pretends not to see the man when he then enters the café to beg for money. What happens next is pretty funny and I won't say any more--it would spoil the film.

Well worth seeing and very well made.

This Oscar nominated short animation is about a businessman who goes into a café for a cup of coffee. He finds out he doesn't have his wallet when he is about to pay. he has to find ways to come up with money to foot the bill.

"French Roast" is simple, yet well made. The quality of the animation is good, with well designed backgrounds and humorously designed characters. The story nicely captures the psychology of everyday life, about how people react to beggars and about how good people feel about doing bad. The ending twist is also comical, and yet illustrates how a random act of kindness can make a difference to another person. I enjoyed watching "French Roast".

A stuffy, judgmental man sits in a restaurant. He has a coffee and then realizes he has left his wallet behind. A fly infested wild man comes and goes as well as a nun with a secret. He is mortified that he can't pay his bill and won't leave until he finds a way to get some money. This is a real study in human nature. Well done and pleasantly animated.
