"The taste of sunshine" Gezien in: Pathé Buitenhof, Den Haag d.d. 5-10-2008 What a fantastic film!
A true story that takes you right back to the moment that France lost a bit of its cache as "The Wine Land".
California wines, some well-done nods to the 70's lifestyle, great acting and casting, and lots of california sun and vines.
The story catches and keeps your attention from the first moment, with both laughter, suspence and family-drama, and even some romance.
A favourite scene is the bet in the bar, Can 'the little mexican' tell all the vintage yearss, grape sorts in the four bottles of wine, blind testing?
This is a real game palyed in the Napa Valley, a kind of proove your machismogame. the film caught it and more, even drinking wine from old jelly jars.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Don't miss it! |
