Chef

It’s rare that I leave a cinema feeling, for lack of a better word, happy. That’s not to say there aren’t lots of films that I enjoy, this year in particular has been a great one for cinema. Under the Skin was brilliant but I left the cinema feeling rather disturbed and uncomfortable. Twelve Years a Slave was incredible but everybody left the cinema in complete silence, unable to put into words how harrowing the film was. When I left the cinema after watching Chef I was happy, “Ow my face hurts from smiling and I feel warm inside” happy.
