Pizza - Food, But SO Much More Than Food
This well-crafted documentary is much more than the story of the "Holy Trinity" of New Haven pizza. It's a celebration of the social activity that sharing a pizza is (and was always meant to be). It's a reminder of how pizza was originally a low-cost, critical food source; a sort of "peasant food." It's a lesson on the history of pizza, and how without women and immigrants pizza as we know it would never exist. It's an examination of how ethnic neighborhoods in many cities have been ripped apart by city planners. And it's - as the title says - a love story, the love between pizza and the entire United States. Gorman Bechard hits a home run once again. And remember, it's CHARRED, not burned.
Don't try to tell me you know anything about pizza if you haven't seen this film.
