Eat Drink Man Woman [Mader]

An appetizing slice of life. Eat. Drink. Man. Woman. Individually, they are the basic elements of a mortal world. Together, they create and sustain life. For Taiwan's greatest living chef, food is life. Despite possessing a culinary prowess revered by friends and neighbours, he is at a loss when it comes to properly preparing his single greatest dish - raising three rebellious daughters.

Following up the phenomenal success of THE WEDDING BANQUET, director Ang Lee has returned with a tasty new take on family, tradition and gender roles - with a few added spices. EAT DRINK MAN WOMAN offers a variety of firsts for the director: he had the luxury of a larger budget, and it is also sort of a homecoming by being the first feature film he has shot entirely in Taiwan.

A presentation of The Samuel Goldwyn Company, EAT DRINK MAN WOMAN features a thoroughly enjoyable score by Mader that captures the true essence of this charming film.
