Mondovino!
February 07, 2005

Saw Mondovino yesterday at the Brixton Ritzy... Some confusing editing and a length of two and a quarter hours didn't help, Meet The Fockers was the same length and lot less demanding [ass-hooooooole!]...

Mondovino is a documentary about the impact of Globalisation on small wine producers, shot in France, Italy, Argentina etc. it's the interviews with these wine producers that make this film - There are some fantastic characters, all of whom seem to have dogs that Nossiter was very keen on filming too! The film is inconclusive really, but I guess that allows you to make up your own mind. I don't know enough about wine to fully appreciate any subtle differences, but the fact that these people believe so passionately in what they do as opposed to the likes of the Mondavi family and their attempts to make everything taste the same!

Mass Blandness all round then... Anyway I believe there is a ten hour DVD planned! I think I've seen all I need for now thanks.

This was preceded by the best omelette I have ever had at SW9

Which is where I took this wall shot...
