Not Just One Cooking Movie, 12 of Them – An Essential Culinary List
I have been subjective in choosing these movies to put on the following culinary list, but I have to confess that it wasn't very hard.

Top 100 StarMeter 2014
Here are the 100 stars who consistently ranked the highest on the IMDb weekly STARmeter chart throughout 2014. IMDb STARmeter rankings are based on the actual page views of IMDb’s more than 200 million unique monthly visitors.

My last year Top was the imdb STARmeter on January 3'rd. The surprise this year is that Top 10 is exclusively … [Read more...]
