Arriving from Broome Jerome, a guest of the Broome Uniting Church is arriving in Darwin this week, and seeking accommodation in a flat or guest room. From Ray McGinnis The Hundred-Foot Journey is a movie about the Kadam family, who have fled their native India after their restaurant was burned down during a political protest and the mother killed (presumably a Muslim-Hindu clash). After spending a year in England, the family heads to France, where it wanders around the countryside while Papa (Om Puri) looks for the right place to open a new Indian restaurant in Europe. When the van the Kadam’s are driving breaks down in a picture postcard village due to break failure, the location of the restaurant falls into place as they get the van fixed. Papa discovers an empty restaurant for sale right across the street from Madame Mallory’s (Helen Mirren) top flight classic French restaurant Le Saule Pleureur. Papa’s son, Hassan, has an innate gift for cooking. Hassan makes an omelette for Madame Mallory, which results in her offering Hassan a position as chef in her kitchen. Hassan is also fond of one of the chefs at the restaurant, Marguerite. When Marguerite learns that Hassan is to join the kitchen at her restaurant another competition and mixed emotions cloud their budding relationship. Type: Drama Director: Lasse Hallstrom Film company: Weinstein Company Release date: August 8, 2014 Starring: Helen Mirren, Manish Dayal, Om Puri, Charlotte Le Bron Rating: PG-13 Papa Kadam believes he’s found the perfect spot to open an Indian restaurant in France. The only problem is he’s selected a location that’s only 100 feet away from Le Saule Pleureur,one of best-reviewed restaurants in the region. Madame Mallory is tenacious in her purpose to earn a second Michelin star, a prized rating for restaurants in France. At one point, she orders all the shellfish and salmon in the village market to prevent the upstart Indian restaurant from being able to prepare many of the dishes featured on their menu. A feud begins between the restaurants, which is finally ended when an attempted arson of the Indian restaurant reveals elements of racism within the wider community.
