Tampopo (1985) Movie Summary

  • COMEDY
  • Unrated
  • 1985
  • FULL HD

The tale of an eccentric band of culinary ronin who guide the widow of a noodle shop owner on her quest for the perfect recipe, this rapturous “ramen western” by Japanese director Juzo Itami is an entertaining, genre-bending adventure underpinned by a deft satire of the way social conventions distort the most natural of human urges, our appetites. Interspersing the efforts of Tampopo (Nobuko Miyamoto) and friends to make her café a success with the erotic exploits of a gastronome gangster and glimpses of food culture both high and low, the sweet, sexy, and surreal Tampopo is a lavishly inclusive paean to the sensual joys of nourishment, and one of the most mouthwatering examples of food on film ever made.

Tampopo Film Synopsis

In this humorous paean to the joys of food, a pair of truck drivers happen onto a decrepit roadside shop selling ramen noodles. The widowed owner, Tampopo, begs them to help her turn her establishment into a paragon of the "art of noodle-soup making". Interspersed are satirical vignettes about the importance of food to different aspects of human life.

Français
Tampopo, une jeune veuve, gère, sans succès, un petit restaurant de ramen dans un quartier populaire de Tokyo. Sa vie va basculer le jour où un client, Goro, routier à la dégaine de cow-boy et fin gourmet, décide de lui enseigner l'art et la manière de cuisiner les nouilles.

Deutsch
Die beiden japanischen Trucker Gun und Goro kommen hungrig in eine Stadt. Dort essen sie in einem kleinen Restaurant, in dem die junge Witwe Tampopo Ramen – die traditionelle japanische Nudelsuppe – kocht und serviert. Allerdings laufen die Geschäfte dort nicht sonderlich gut und so beschließt das ungleiche Trucker-Paar – der Eine ist noch ziemlich jung; der Andere schon älter, dafür aber erfahrener – der Besitzerin des Ladens und ihrer Familie zu helfen. Gemeinsam wollen sie den Laden zum führenden Restaurant für Ramen machen. Doch dazu muss zunächst einmal die Kunst der Nudelsuppe erlernt werden. Um dies zu erreichen, spionieren die beiden findigen Trucker nicht nur die Rezepte der Konkurrenz mit allerlei Tricks aus, sondern verbünden sich auch mit einigen erstaunlichen Leuten.

O primeiro Western-Spaguetti japonês! Neste hino bem-humorado para as alegrias da comida, a história principal é sobre o motorista do caminhão Goro, um cowboy do asfalto, que "cavalga" para a cidade como um Shane moderno para ajudar a viúva e chefe de cozinha Tampopo a transformar seu restaurante no lugar perfeito para o conhecido Udon, a sopa de macarrão japonesa. Entrelaçadas nesta história principal temos uma série de pequenas histórias sobre a importância dos alimentos. Desde um gangster que mistura sexo quente com alimentos, até uma velha que aterroriza um vendedor de legumes por compulsivamente apertar suas mercadorias.

Türkçe
Yemek ve yemek fetişizmi üzerine eğlenceli bir film olan 'Tampopo'da içiçe geçmiş çok karakterli pek çok öykü anlatılıyor. Tampopo kendi restoranında özensiz ‘Ramen’ pişirip durmaktadır. Goro ve arkadaşı ise yol üstünde karınlarını doyurmaya gelmişlerdir fakat kendilerini Tampopo’ya aşçılıkta ustalaşmakta yardım ederken bulurlar. Sadece lezzetli Ramen pişirmenin püf noktalarını öğrenmek değil, alakalı alakasız ‘an’larla kafanızı karıştıracak veya güldürecek sade bir hikayenin sıradan olması gerekmediğini hatırlamak da gayet güzeldir. Yaptıklarınızın sürekli sıradan, hatta ortalamanın altında kalması inanılmaz can sıkıcıdır.
