Gourmets of Wine > Animation films reach for the top | MONDOVINO Film Production!!!

[MONDOVINO Film Production!!!] The big companies, creators of wonderful animated movies, such as Disney and Pixar are now pushing to be included among the “serious” films.For example, Oscars awards for animated films never have they been included in the best film category, until 2009, when the wonderful, sensitive story featured in “UP” was nominated to the Oscar along with Avatar and the award winner, The Hurt Locker.The impact of animated films for adults too, has been diminished for a long time. But great Pixar and Disney creations, such as the above mentioned “Up”, and the funniest series of “Shrek” and the “Madagascar” and this year’s releases “Megamind” and “Hop” prove that animated films deserve a spot among the “serious” movies.

[Keagans Blog] Streaming Cars Gift Set Online | Keagans Blog: in High Definition is peaceful stunning but of course since the unique Blu-ray was released in 2007, the lossless audio soundtrack is presented in English 5.1 uncompressed (48 kHz/24-Bit) instead of the unique 5.1 or 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio lossless soundtrack that Pixar films are offered in today’s Blu-ray releases. But detached, it’s uncompressed audio and the lossless audio soundtrack of this Blu-ray release is composed fabulous.

[Brandon's movie memory] Brandon's movie memory » Mondovino (2004, Jonathan Nossiter): Still my favorite wine documentary. Unnervingly unsteady handheld digital camerawork, wandering obsession with wine people’s pets, sudden shifts from one country to another, and interviews that give subjects plenty time to make their views clear or to make fools of themselves.

[sterow] War on Terroir | sterow: Nossiter’s suspicion of globalisation - and particularly of the disproportionate influence of American viewpoints and preferences - will be familiar from other recent documentaries, such as Jennifer Abbott and Mark Achbar’s The Corporation. What makes Mondovino interesting is the setting within the wine world.

[The Underground Wine Letter] Movies and Wine and Drink: (2004)  A truly wine centric movie, while the other movies feature wine, Sideways (adapted from Rex Pickett’s 2004 novel) is about wine.  Two buddies go on a week-long road trip/bachelor party before Jack (Thomas Haden Church) gets married.  Miles (Paul Giamatti)  is a wine writer who loves wine, but Jack is into sex and partying.  The movie has good wine quotes and gorgeous scenes of the Santa Ynez Valley.  It is shot at the Hitching Post Restaurant, Sanford, the town of Solvang, Foxen, Kalyra, Fess Parker (where Miles drinks from the wine spit bucket), A. Spurs Restaurant and Firestone.  The wines drunk include a 1992 sparkler from Byron, Fiddlehead Sauvignon Blanc, Hitching Post Highliner, Whitcraft Pinot Noir, Sea Smoke Pinot Noir, Kistler Chardonnay and Andrew Murray Syrah.  Miles disparages Merlot and Cabernet Franc, preferring Pinot Noir.  However, his dream wine is Cheval Blanc, which, strangely enough, is a blend (generally 60/40) of those two grapes.  At the end, he is drinking  1961 Cheval Blanc from a foam cup at a local fast-food restaurant.    Maya (Virginia Madsen), the waitress in Alexander Payne’s cult classic, talks about the wine she and Miles are drinking and the people who helped make it, wine as a piece of living history, wine’s connections to other facets of life, and the fact that wine is meant to be shared with friends.
