Review: Based on the novel by Richard C.
Morais and adapted by Steven Knight, "The journey of hundreds of
meters" is a nice frothy tale of an immigrant family, and his attempt to
interfere in a foreign country.
The film restorer of paths Kadam family in Mumbai. During the political turmoil, its restaurant is destroyed, his wife is murdered and forced to emigrate. They are seeking asylum in London. And because your business is not doing well in the UK, to change decisions and "all over Europe."
This is when driving through the countryside of France in a shabby van, an accident and encounter with a local, Marguerite, held in the picturesque village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val.
On the road, a ruined house that was once a restaurant called the attention of the patriarch. He decides he wants his family to settle down and opens his new restaurant - House Mumbai.
His first three children - Hassan Mansoor and Aesha - I convince him to reconsider his decision, claiming that the French do not like Indian food and there is an elite restaurant with a Michelin-starred opposite property Michelin hundreds of meters.
Kadam, but inflexible. So ultimately, Hassan told his father talking to his deceased wife, to which he replied: "She said that the brakes have failed for a reason."
That sealed his fate.
The Kadam settle their restaurant with garish against all odds, only to find their prodigy - Chef Hassan - has a different set of objectives. And this is the way to achieve your goal, which is the heart of the film.
Om Puri as the father is always the same, sputtering and smoking which depicts the inner life of a patriarch seat. Helen Mirren as Mrs. Mallory, the French woman stretching and owner of a Michelin-starred restaurant, also differs.
But Manish Dayal Hassan and Marguerite Charlotte Le Bon, surpassing the elderly.
The onscreen chemistry between the two couples - Helen and OM and Manish and Charlotte - is the life of the film.
It is the evolution of the characters and Puri Mirren; contradictory personal and national pride, friendly rivals with common characteristics, the message of the films can be achieved by multicultural harmony is an embrace of cultures, food is the binding factor.
Linus Sandgren photography is a visual delight, capturing the natural beauty of France and the mundane life of the characters, in all its simplicity.
Food shots, scenic spots and camera work smoothly move that captures the characters in your approach injects adrenaline boost to the viewing experience.
Humor and rant is so stereotypical, still fresh in their approach.
While the title and the environment is a good allegory of the story, which is so typical of Lasse Hallstrom, the theme of the film, as well as some scenes reminiscent of his previous film "Chocolat", which was published in 2000.
