Recommendation: The Hundred-Foot Journey

I grew up watching some of the most dramatic, sometimes bloody shows on TV: ER, CSI, Ally McBeal, X-Files, etc. There's a theory that the safer you feel, the more you can enjoy shows like that. These days, anything dramatic feels a little too close to the bone, so I go to my TV almost exclusively for comfort.

Scrolling through the limited catalog of Netflix and Amazon Prime in Italy, it felt like a miracle to come across this beautiful little gem of a movie, The Hundred-Foot Journey. In it, and Indian family travels from London to rural France to open a restaurant in a building they got for a steal. Turns out it is located across from a Michelin-rated restaurant directed by Helen Mirren. Helen Mirren! What else do I need to say for you to watch the movie???
