'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.

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.
