Thanks for the tip. Do you know when that one is coming out, Jared??
Don’t forget “Beer Wars,” “The Vanishing of the Bees,” and, for the last commenter, “Para la Gente.”
Jennifer Merin keeps a great blog of reviews on documentaries and seems particularly interested in food documentaries. She watches a lot of dang movies!
Interesting film, I watched many of them and they liked me.
