Various sketches float, revue-like, around the attempts of Tampopo to assemble the finest possible team of artists for her noodle restaurant.
Review:
A tad overlong, but a delight to gloat over, this tongue-in-cheek comedy about how to make 'profound' noodles combines many influences, from The Magnificent Seven and its samurai counterpart to La Grande Bouffe.
