'Chef' Plays Real

I think Jon Favreau threw Dustin Hoffman a curve with an ad lib line in this scene. Hoffman stays in it but it looks like he's genuinely stressed. I don't think that's technique.

Nice work. Looking forward.

Somebody Actually Made A Real Movie

Yeah, that's right. I used 'actually' and 'real' in the same sentence.

Here's the best trailer you'll see all day.

Take My Money Clip From Jon Favreau's 'Chef'

Whaa? Jon Favreau has written, directed, and acted in a movie called 'Chef'? Shut up and take my money.

Here's the rundown:

A chef who loses his restaurant job starts up a food truck in an effort to reclaim his creative promise, while piecing back together his estranged family.

That clicks. With (take a breath) Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Sofia Vergara, Dustin Hoffman, John Leguizamo, Bobby Cannavale, Amy Sedaris, (take another breath) Oliver Platt, and Garry Shandling.

Effing wow.
