Often been surprised by a movie after what a film critic said about it? Ever felt cheated out of big bucks on the recommendations of a punk 24-year-old? Or really loved the ones they panned?

And get ready to relive your favorite movies with the recipes that follow each review.
Hungary in the 1930s, and Laszlo Szabo’s Budapest restaurant, as well as the man himself, stands as a last bastion of elegance, civility and grace in a world that is slowly spiraling into chaos. While his beautiful Ilona, like her Greek namesake Helen, is the center of her own small circle of adulation and destruction.
It lurks there beyond the manicured lawns and the starkly magnificent stone walls, within the polished drawing rooms and mahogany staircases -- a passion so intense as to defy all tradition of English stoicism. And like a rare and exotic flower it struggles against the harsh winds of war, the searing storm of jealousy, and hot breath of wrongful accusation.
Take a break from the cache of current film offerings to see this classic once dubbed the finest courtroom drama ever made. Despite the fact that the black and white feature was made some fifty years ago, it appears as fresh and contemporary as the many imitators it has spawned. And like real life, neither the cast nor the verdict is entirely predictable.
This stylish thriller takes you for a ride past landscapes reminiscent of Hitchcock. You can even catch remnants of those sexed up 80s mysteries like The Jagged Edge lurking in the tall grass. But you’d better keep your eyes on the road, because you’ll never guess what is going to be around the next hairpin curve.
Sure, you know what happened on April 20, 2010. The oilrig Deepwater Horizon blew, and it blew big. But that knowledge doesn’t make it any less awesome when you have a front row seat within the ticking time bomb that fateful day.
