Excellent Lighting and photography!


This movie was so absolutely easy on the eyes. The lighting was done so very well that the night-time shots did look as though it was candle light only. It was so very soft yet lit the characters right in the face without a hint of glare. It was very Van-Gough lighting, showing the light direction but oh so very softly. It makes everyone's face look almost glowing. Bravo! What a wonderful moving to watch!

Yes. I totally agree. It was perfect for this kind of movie.

Beautifully shot I agree!

It is the photography that saved this movie for me. This one has put me off ever watching another foodie film gain.

Agreed. The visual style and cinematography of this movie were -- by far -- its strongest aspects to me. When I saw the trailers, the visual look made me feel like it was something worth seeing on the cinema's big screen; I'm glad I did, although the actual storytelling was just okay.
