Dinner Gets You A Movie: I have a winner!
Contests rule. I've got pages of responses -- some funny, some surprising, all good.
And, may God strike me down, but I'm not going to announce the winner until I've shared the runners-up with you.
First up: The Great Minds Think Alike award, for familiar (if not well loved) films that received multiple votes.
"The Blues Brothers" (2 votes)
"Tampopo" (3 votes)
"Eat Drink Man Woman" (2 votes)
"The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover" (2 votes)
"Big Night" (2 votes)





I'd vote for the Blues Brothers. I'd completely forgotten about that scene.

Actually I think the best scene from Big Night is at the end, when he silently makes an exquisite omelette.
What, no clips of Rocky punching sides of beef?!
Fun contest!
