Oh, That Looks Good: Movies For Foodies
World's most obvious suggestion: Big Night, where two brothers try to save their failing restaurant by preparing a magnificent Italian feast on honor of an expected visit by famous (in the 1950s, where the movie is set) jazz band leader Louis Prima. The meal starts with Timpano and climaxes with roast suckling pig. We get to see the painstaking cooking and obvious passion for food.
This one might surprise you: Transporter 3. Frank and his beautiful Ukrainian "package" spend much of the film riding around in his BMW wearing bracelets that will explode if they move 60 feet from the car. Bad guys are making them do bad things. To lighten the mood, they describe ideal meals to one another, and they are both clearly hedonistic. (At one point she makes him do a striptease for her.) What are your recommendations?
