THE EXPERIENCE

Juzo Itami’s “ramen western” is a lavish tribute to taste and desire. Join us for this genre-bending 1985 film dedicated to the emotional power of food. 

ON SCREEN: Tampopo

1985. Directed by Juzo Itami. Runtime: 1hr 54min. Not Rated.

In this humorous paean to the joys of food, a pair of truck drivers happen onto a decrepit roadside shop selling ramen noodles. The widowed owner, Tampopo, begs them to help her turn her establishment into a paragon of the “art of noodle-soup making”. Interspersed are satirical vignettes about the importance of food to different aspects of human life.
