Hello world. This is my bio. I'm away looking for free movies, so I will edit it later!
Your fans are waiting!
I love a good food movie!
Watching free movies online and free movie downloads are my latest passion. Soon I will publish new lenses about my discoveries on free movie downloads and how to watch free movies online. Meanwhile I get movies here.
Anyway, one of my favourite types of movies are food movies. Movies that show sumptuous food preparation and food consumption. I've listed my favourites below. What are yours? Check these out and vote or add your own.

What makes a great food movie?
So, what makes a great food movie? Well, a number of things. First of all ... great cooking scenes. I like them when they are in montage-form and set to some kicky music.Secondly, great eating scenes ... preferably set at sumptuous dinner tables. I like the elaborate table settings almost as much as the food.
Third, characters that talk about the food and I learn something. I love it when I learn something new about the food or the wine in the movie. Either about a new ingredient or a new way of preparing something.
What makes a food movie rock for you? Leave a comment in the guest book below?
