What's Cooking? (Signature Series) (US Version) DVD Region 1

In WHAT'S COOKING, British director Gurinder Chadha takes a step back from her own Indian heritage to explore the cultural, familial, and social traditions of four very different families, each celebrating Thanksgiving in Los Angeles. The families--one African American, one Latino, one Jewish, and one Vietnamese--differ in the ways that they interact, the ways that they celebrate, and, of course, in what's cooking on the stove. A hit at Sundance 2000, WHAT'S COOKING is a rich and intelligent film that features a stellar cast, including Joan Chen, Julianna Margulies, Kyra Sedgwick, Mercedes Ruehl, Alfre Woodard, and Lanie Kazan.

"...[It] triumphs....Chadha successfully leads a large, vibrant cast..." - Stephen, Farber (Movieline Critic), Movieline's Hollywood Life, 11/01/2000

"...Ms. Chanda makes [the stories] feel surprisingly rich and dense....[You'll] walk away stuffed and happy..." - A. O., Scott (New York Times Critic), New York Times, 11/17/2000

"...Chadha's dialogue flows easily and rings true....Superb performances....Chadha melds comedy and tragedy so masterfully that one's laughing at and crying for the characters simultaneously..." -- 4 out of 5 stars - Annlee, Ellingson (Box Office Critic), Box Office, 04/01/2000

"...The direction is as sensual as the camerawork. Chadha's style is big and generous..." - Bonnie, Grier (Sight And Sound Critic), Sight and Sound, 09/01/2001

"...Lovingly shot....A comic exploration of the melting pot that is the City of Angels....[With] strong performances..." - Tom, Dawson (Total Film Critic), Total Film, 09/01/2001

"...A sure-fire winner, an endlessly inventive serious comedy....For so brisk and entertaining a film, sharp in its observations but light in its touch, COOKING has unexpected substance and is a formidable accomplishment..." - Kevin, Thomas (Film critic), Los Angeles Times, 11/17/2000

"...There are so many characters, so vividly drawn, with such humor and life..." - Roger, Ebert (Critic and screenwriter), Chicago Sun-Times, 11/17/2000

"[T]he warmth and nourishment of family life is the winner here." - David, Stubbs (Uncut Critic), Uncut, 09/01/2004
