  Tampopo 1985

  a serious cinematic flex. visually perfect. the ritual in everything really emphasized the importance for intentionality, respect, and appreciation of even the most mundane aspects of life. definitely a strong message of hardwork, passion and how the two are intertwined. one without the other, won’t really work. there’s a quiet, patient kind of devotion… mastery of any craft can’t come quickly but through constant effort and a surrendering to the process. loved the part with the “foodie” bums. these happy…
