Tampopo
1 hr 54 min
Join the search for the perfect noodle with a screening of TAMPOPO, turning 40 this year. If watching this “flapdoodle farce,” (Kael) floating in a “bemused meditation on human nature,” (Ebert) always makes you hungry, order up a bowl of ramen* crafted just for you. You can also go big and try to go home with the Golden Chopsticks by entering Sun-Ray’s Ramen Slurping Showdown. The contestant with the best sound, suction, and overall performance will earn a year of free films (minus special events). Hosted by Tampa’s EJ Moreno.
*Vegans, we got you too .
The tale of an enigmatic band of ramen ronin who guide the widow of a noodle shop owner on her quest for the perfect recipe, Tampopo serves up a savory broth of culinary adventure seasoned with offbeat comedy sketches and
the erotic exploits of a gastronome gangster. Sweet, sexy, surreal, and mouthwatering, Tampopo remains one of the most delectable examples of food on film.
