A while back, Gloria Monti requested:


>         Starting with *Eat Drink Man Woman* (1994), Ang Lee, I am looking
> for critical work on the depiction of food onscreen and the role of food in
> family life (food and love, fathers and daughters, etc.).  Also, I haven't
> been able to find anything beyond reviews of the film.
>         Any leads?

Replies here so far have given lists of other films that feature food,
but Gloria seems to be asking for *critical* work.  Here's some that
might (or might not) be of some use:
