To use a small quote from Close Encounters… ” He looks like a Fifty-Fifty Bar! “
And not a single reference to Kitchen Confidential in that blurb?
Ssssshhh! We don’t want accusations of plagiarism! Just look at pretty, pretty Bradley in his chef uniform.
Yeah, it’s screaming out alright. I remember seeing a trailer for this film and thinking that Anthony Bourdain must have been on the screenplay, or that it was based on Kitchen Confidential, but no reference to it on IMDB.
Bradley Cooper even played him in the show, and the tag line makes it sound like a identical concept.
I re-watched a couple of episodes of Kitchen Confidential lately, it was crap, but it could have been great with a more intelligent script and a direct who could just slow it down a little.
Terrible.
