What's Cooking? (2000)
Country: US/GB
Technical: col 109m
Director: Gurinder Chadha
Cast: Mercedes Ruehl, Joan Chen, Alfre Woodard
Synopsis:
Four L.A. families of diverse cultural backgrounds celebrate Thanksgiving and work out some of their internal strife.
Review:
Excellently acted ensemble piece, a minute cross-cutting exercise between what turn out to be four neighbouring houses; not the most sophisticated of works (cf. Short Cuts) in its choice of themes, but one whose direct emotional appeal most will identify with.
