 Food Movies List

With the Oscars coming up on Sunday, we thought it would be a good idea to look back as some of best food movies from the last 25 years.   This is by far not a complete list of food films but any of these would make the foodie in you happy.

Like Water for Chocolate

A food movie about old Mexican customs, love lost, and magical food.

 

Sideways

Miles is a wine-aficionado, Jack is a hornball.  They take a trip to wine country to booze it up.

 

BABETTE'S FEAST

A Danish Christian Sect?  A extravagant meal?   Oh yeah it's good.

 

Big Night

How two Italian Immigrant brothers try to create a successful restaurant on the Jersey Shore.  Snooki would be proud.

 

Eat Drink Man Woman

A film by Ang Lee about a father who loses his sense of taste.  The clincher… he's a chef.   Also his 3 daughters all fall in an out of love.

 

Ratatouille

Academy Award-winning director Brad Bird ("The Incredibles") brings you into the world of a Rat in Paris dreaming to become a chef.

 

Julie and Julia

The true story on when you give a Blogger a cookbook and she decides to cook five hundred twenty four French recipes in a year? On and Meryl Streep is in it!

 

Tortilla Soup

A retired Mexican Chef shares a home with his 3 daughters. It's a remake of Eat Drink Man Woman but it's still good.

 

Soul Food

A tale about trials a family has and of course Sunday dinner.

Chocolat

This food movie has the beauty of food presented to Johnny Depp by mystical Juliette Binoche.
