The Twin Geeks 54: Chef
from The Twin Geeks · host The Twin Geeks
Still not satiated after the Thanksgiving holiday, we return with our eyes still fixated on food, movie food specifically. Actor/director Jon Favreau gave us one of the most heart-warming and plate-warming food movies in recent memory this decade. The story of a renowned chef leaving his stuffy restaurant job to find satisfaction in the independent circuit of the food truck market mirrored his own desire to return to less smaller, less studio intense work in the movie business after having great success in helping start the Marvel Cinematic Universe back in 2008. Chef is one of Favreau's greatest directorial successes, proving himself capable beyond Disney's latest go-to with the subsequent live-action successes of The Jungle Book (2016) and The Lion King (2019), showing off a cinematic eye in the presentation of the film's many mouth-watering dishes, and also a great sense for character in the touching tale of a man reconnecting with his world through his one great passion.A production of The Twin Geeks | Join our Discord
