In this humorous paean to the joys of food, a pair of truck drivers happen onto a decrepit roadside shop selling ramen noodles. The widowed owner, Tampopo, begs them to help her turn her establishment into a paragon of the "art of noodle-soup making". Interspersed are satirical vignettes about the importance ... More

a disjointed semi-ridiculous movie on food, and mostly, perfecting the art of noodle-making. the main storyline would've been adequate as a commendable, moral, short (~1hr) movie, but the director chose to insert unrelated snippets of dubious value, peppered at random timings, throughout the show, to stir up feelings of distaste, arousal, disgust, and ickiness.nonetheless, i have to admit i enjoyed the well-groomed gangster's 5-min long bollywood-style dying scene in which he describes his ultimate meal to his lady love (after 10 gunshot wounds or so).... fire-roasted yam sausages... that read more

apparently 7 years ago today i was just posting film reviews straight to facebook, which fb reminded me of this morning. so i repost my unfiltered trip down memory lane here...all over again: "tampopo", one of the "best" japanese movies ever, that frankly i thought was pretty shit. this is quite literally food pornography in many scenes. you can accurately judge the whole film by the credits scene, which is a 2 minute close up of a woman's nipple as she feeds her baby. the film documents the rather japanese obsession with food and the "correct" way to eat, prepare, or order it. you can tie it... read more

seems like this is one of those films where people love to exaggerate how weird it is. honestly, the weirdness peaks with the fourth wall break right at the start; the rest of the film may be creative and playful but it's not really worth being put into all these "surreal mindbender" lists. most of the playfulness in tampopo comes from the way the script allows itself to wander. it frequently shows you a brief moment of a character who incidentally walked into the scene. that whole "just go whereever and return to the central narrative whenever" reminds me a lot of the way my thoughts wander... read more

This movie is just such a joy to watch, you could really get deep into the weeds on the meaning(s) behind everything going on but it's just as easy to just sit back and enjoy the food and humor the film has on display. I watched the making of documentary, narrated by Juzo Itami himself, this time - I can't believe I missed seeing this in the supplements on the Criterion Blu-ray the first time around. This is easily the most in-depth look that I've seen at the behind the scenes of a Japanese film shoot, and it being from Itami's perspective instead of a 3rd party's really gave some read more
