Have You watched "Bottle Shock"

[Scooter68]

Ok so as far as scenes - What is your read on The English Wine Snob (Rickman) when he is eating KFC out of the bucket. Disgust? Curious Enjoyment ? I tell myself that the Brits are not know for a long list of gastronomical delights so....he found it pleasant surprise perhaps?

Sorry, Brits on here but... That's just a widely heard comment about UK food some iwth really odd names like:
Bubble and Squeak.
Toad in the hole,
Welsh Rarebit,
Stargazy Pie
Spotted ****
Bangers And Mash


(Sadly Alan Rickman passed away in 2016. He was so good at playing despicably evil or devious persons.)

Me too! I rewatched Bottle Shock over the weekend, thanks to this thread.

Update: I just tried to watch the first episode of Mondovino. Note, it's a 10 part series, not a movie, and it is a documentary. Unfortunately, the camera work is unbelievably terrible, so distracting, I couldn't keep watching. And you have to watch, because it's in French with English subtitles. The cameraman keeps doing extreme close-ups on random spots (a goldfish behind one person, a guy's bushy eyebrow, police badge on a sleeve, etc.). I don't know if the other episodes are the same. YMMV, but I'm not spending 9 more hours of my time finding out. :-(
