Screen-Space

Ella Brennan makes for a mighty cinematic figure, her iron-willed charisma ideally suited for Leslie Iwerks' boisterous celebration of spirit, showmanship and determination.

Rated: 3.5/5

The film is incredibly respectful, but that's clearly because Brennan commands incredible respect.

In my top 3 films I've seen at Dallas Int'l Film Festival 2017. Not just about food or the Brennans. Everyone who deals with the public can learn much about making your customers feel golden!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

This is a wonderful movie -especially for those who love food and New Orleans. A tribute to a unique driven woman with a vision for what it took to open and "command" one of the finest restaurants in the USA. You'll definitely leave hungry but satisfied !!!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
