In these times of uncertainty and staying in, let’s be honest, we’re all watching more of our guilty pleasures. My comfort viewing often steers towards films or TV that include some kind of food element. Here are 5 films that have me dreaming of food.

Eat, Drink, Man, Woman 1994 and Babette’s Feast 1987 are the ultimate elaborately prepared shared meals, The Lunchbox 2013 has the delight of an unexpected human connection through food, Chef  2014 is all about making food that you feel passionately about and I dare you to watch Tampopo 1985 and not crave ramen down to your bones!

What films have you drooling?

QAGOMA is the only Australian art gallery with purpose-built facilities dedicated to film and the moving image. The Australian Cinémathèque at the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) provides an ongoing program of film and video that you’re unlikely to see elsewhere, offering a rich and diverse experience of the moving image, showcasing the work of influential filmmakers and international cinema, rare 35mm prints, recent restorations and silent films with live musical accompaniment on the Gallery’s Wurlitzer organ originally installed in Brisbane’s Regent Theatre in November 1929.
