Le goût du vin

Yeah yeah it's not accurate... But I also dislike people that write bad reviews over 'historically inaccurate'... It's a nice movie. Nothing super but it entertained!

We really enjoyed this movie! It was very realistic, unpredictable, BEAUTIFULLY acted, well written, funny in many moments without trying and very touching. Very, very well done and a breath of fresh air.

I live in France so can understand the obsession some have with wine. Why such an overall low rating? This was beautifully acted with a believable open ending. No rush at the end to tie things up. It was great to watch a black film without a feeling of dread.

It's nice to watch a movie about a black man in America immersed in black culture that isn't centered on violence and hip hop music. Kudos to Mamoudou Athie and Courtney Vance for superior acting.

Life is never a straight line. Very few of us are doing what we thought we would be doing, or arrived in the manner we thought we would. This movie is a direct reflection of that.

One particular scene, without ruining it, is near the very end. I won't explain it but I hope you will recognize it when you see it. The way the director/writer worked in the imagery and what he was struggling with at that particular time was incredibly effective.
