EAT DRINK MAN WOMAN (YIN SHI NAN NU) Ang Lee Retrospective

Shot in his homeland of Taiwan, EAT DRINK MAN WOMAN, the last installment in Ang Lee’s “Father Knows Best” trilogy, is a touching comedy about love, family and tradition. The film follows a Taipei master chef who has lost his ability to taste and is estranged from his three daughters. Through food and love, we learn that all can be reconciled. If you liked CHOCOLAT, TAMPOPO, BABETTE’S FEAST or LIKE WATER FOR CHOCOLATE, get ready for another cornucopia of food pleasure!
