The Hundred-Foot Journey

 
 
The Hundred-Foot Journey is a movie about family, food, and traditions. 
 
The Kadam family opens an Indian restaurant in a French village directly across the street from a well known French restaurant.  The owner of this French restaurant (Helen Mirren), believes in French cuisine and traditions only and doesn't take too well to the Kadam family.  Despite the differences between the families, they learn that they do indeed have one similarity; their love of food.
 
Rating:  4/5 stars
 
I absolutely loved this movie!  Going in, I knew it would be great, and I was not disappointed.  This movie put me in the mindset of Julie and Julia, and made me hungry - but not just for any old food, I wanted food that had fresh ingredients that melt in your mouth.  It also made me want to take a trip to France. :-)  So there it is.  In the words of my father, "The Hundred-Foot Journey is a feel good movie about food."  Well said, Dad!
