He is also an uber dad to his girls and though they fight
and bicker between themselves there is love and respect for
the old man - despite his obvious desire to be overly protective.
Each week he prepares a gorgeous meal for the family and
each week one of the daughters has a big surprise to throw
into the proceedings.
The daughters are wonderful. Elizabeth Pena is the oldest
and a very conservative teacher. Next is Jacqueline Obradors,
a successful businesswoman, and then comes the flighty one
(and youngest) Tamara Mello as an unsettled college student.
It is very hard to fault any in this cast - Raquel Welch
has a terrific role - and you get wrapped up in their lives
very quickly.
Tortilla Soup is a similar movie to Eat Drink Man
Woman, although is more homey than that classic.
Still, it is a really enjoyable movie that fans of quality
cinema will like.
