Food in the Movies -- Your Favorite Scenes!
« on: October 04, 2007, 09:26:08 am »
Over on the comfort food thread, Lee and I were remembering how often the characters ate french fries with gravy in the movie Diner.

And of course, "Piece of cherry cake?"

Or Ennis eating apple pie in the bus station.

What are your favorite, or memorable, food eating scenes in movies? Everyone, join in!

Great idea, Leslie!

Is it in "Eat Drink Man Woman" where two characters pass a raw egg yolk between their mouths?  I know it sounds gross, but it was incredibly sensual to watch.

My concern is growing over the numbner of food threads you have started...Are you pregnant or something?

No way, darlin. My childbearing days are permanently over. Not sure why I have food on my mind today...

Now, how about a movie scene?

Hahaha, reminds me of a certain peanut butter and jelly sandwich scene...but that was a book, not a movie!  ;)

There is the famous eating scene in Tom Jones, the original film, with Albert Finney.

I remember my parents talking about that scene (I was way too young to see the movie). I found this quote over on IMDb:

And some of the great scenes are worth telling...... Tom and Mrs. Wilkins enjoy a good roast with fruit, eating lusciously and lascivously, eating each other up with their sparkling eyes: this scene is hugely delightful.

Lady and the Tramp

Ah, yes. I found this on Entertainment Weekly....



In the Mood for Love?

LADY AND THE TRAMP (1955)
Two words: spaghetti scene. There's nothing more romantic out there, from the crazy Italian restaurant workers who serenade the pups with ''This is the night, it's a beautiful night...'' to the Tramp offering the last meatball to Lady as a show of his affection. And let's not forget the accidental smooch after the two unknowingly share the same strand of pasta. Forget those other Disney tales about princes saving the day — it's all about the Tramp. — Katy Caldwell

Ah, before whatever happened to Sean Flanery happened to him.  From the film Simply Irresistible
