Fantastic Bank
When I got the bank I just thought the colors would be kind of plain and or just regular colors, but when I took it out and looked at the colors I was happy to know that it had a pink sparkly glittery color on it because I was giving it to my niece. It is a great bank.
For Caesar Afficionados
"In Search of Caesar: The Ultimate Caesar Salad Book" is a neat little book about the history of Caesar Salad as well as adaptations made by chefs throughout the country!Terry D. Greenfield is a restaurant consultant and columnist whose passion for Caesar Salad led him to penning this book.This book was an enjoyable read. I loved reading of the history of this flavorful salad. Also, I enjoyed the adaptations of this classic dish as well. One of them was hysterical! Well, actually, it wasn't funny so much as it was designed to feed a lot of people. The first ingredient: 90 eggs! Yeah, right! I will make that one tomorrow. Not! ;-)There are several black and white photos in here showing salads, menus, restaurants, chefs and the creator, of course, Caesar Cardini.This book is great for true Caesar Salad aficionados. Others may not appreciate it as much.
What did they do to this movie (and why)
I saw an asian import of this movie on DVD about the same time it was hitting the theatres in Denver. Other than the fact that all of the menus were in chinese and I had to follow pretty odd instructions to get english subtitles, I was impressed with the underlying message of the movie. I also thought the use of color shifting really added to the whole experience.I just got the american version of the DVD this week and the subtitles SUCK. They completely changed meanings every chance they had and the finished product looks NOTHING like the movie that originally caught my univided attention.I hope Miramax NEVER chops another chinese movie. If you don't mind a little extra work for a much better version, find the import.
too bad it cant be nominated
this is one of my favorite movies in theaters this year, too bad it was nominated for best foriegn film last year and cant be nominated again, all I have to say is: see this movie, you wont be dissapointed.
review
Its was great I lost my original copy and wanted to replace, but couldnt find it at all let alone at a good price. And here it was at a great price I love it.
Tarantino should be put in prison.
An artistic tragedy. Tarantino and Weinstein should be put in prison for what they've done to this masterpiece. First they delayed the release so it wouldn't compete with the garbage Kill Bill franchise. Then they changed the original subtitles, dumbing down the story for the half-wits who control Miramax. Look for an Asian DVD release if you want to really see this work of genius. And please don't give your entertainment dollars to Quentin or Harvey, remember that they were almost done for, then a million morons paid to see "Basterds." Now we have another decade of @*%&! to look forward to from these two hacks.
