The Cookbook

The Cookbook is an excellent movie that gets you interested immediately. It is refreshing to see a story that tugs at your heart. The actors and actresses were very believable and their roles really seemed to mesh very well together. It was easy to understand what was being said. Very clear and meaningful dialogue made the drama develop smoothly. The writer has much insight into the emotions and feelings of family struggles, expectations, devotion to family and the true meaning of love for family. For a short film it was powerful in its message of the importance of ones decisions. The Cookbook might bring you to tears and make you think about your own life. It truly is a wonderful story that everyone should watch. You won't be disappointed.

This short movie was a heartwarming story about a close family - it shows us that caring, consideration and love of family are not lost - the message about what is truly important and what is to be cherished is meaningful and beautiful - superb writing, acting, and directing. - One never tires of watching it - I especially enjoyed the musical background and the authenticity of the storyline - it is easy to see why this short movie has received so much well deserved recognition - I am anxious to see more work from this talented, and artistic team - Congratulations and the best of luck in all future endeavors.

Very easy to relate to. The movie flows very well. It keeps your attention as you go along. The plot is very believable, because it is something that actually happens in everyday life. The direction was very well put in place and flows like it should. The writer, director and actors did a very good job, and should be proud of what they have accomplished with this movie. As I said before, it is very easy to relate to the struggles of family members dealing with a family crisis. Just how fragile everything can be. Looking forward to seeing what else the writer puts out. It is half as good as this. Everyone is in for a treat.

Our world is fast-paced and ever evolving; much time is spent on social media, our careers, and "busy work." This film takes you on a journey of what's truly impactful and meaningful in life - - family.

It can best be described as bittersweet and relatable to anyone that comes from a close-knit, multicultural family. It's a story of life, loss, and the one reality that will someday come to us all, Father Time.

For anyone that has loved and lost, for anyone that has had to endure the pain of watching a close family suffer through a debilitating illness, and for anyone that has a fond memory of a loved one through a song or a special food, this film is for you 💜
